This spring there was a large fire of over 700 acres on the mountain above where I live in North Carolina. Because of this, there is less food where they usually live and the bears have been moving down into my neighborhood. On an afternoon walk in the woods I saw 6 bears, including two mothers with cubs. Perhaps this is Smokey the Bear, suggesting I try a bit harder to prevent forest fires.
