I think there might be bears in my back yard.

(By the way, I don't know much about bear behavior, but I did notice that they must seem to like the spots in our yard that get the most sun. So be careful if you're in a sunny area.)

Now I'm afraid to go outside. My wife says that she can call a company to take care of the bear spots, but that's not going to fix the core problem of bears rolling around outside just feet from my house. My wife thinks this isn't a big deal, but I'm worried. Any suggestions?

Kill them immediately.

NewChiefs first post becomes a lot funnier when you think of the gay slang reference for "bear."

Sometimes I wonder how good a pet store owner you really are.

I thought he raised rabbits for food and mice and crap for people to feed to snakes. Sort of a pet store owner.

There you go.

But I am discreet about the rats, I hide them in the back of the store in the dimly lit corner, almost like selling porn.

Keeps the pet loving clientelle in the dark. All the rats come up to the cash register already bagged and tagged.

Hehehehehehhehh. Well, I am more of a FEED STORE at heart, but the town changed so we emphasise a lot of pet stuff.

I told you he was only interested in raising animals, or "pets", as things to eat. He sells gerbils to snakeowners, rabbits to some frou frou Kalifornian restaurant, and cats to the Vietnamese restaurant down the street.

That's what he means when he says "feed store."

I am the kind of pet store that stays in business.

I use to sell discount cigarettes out of my shop, right along with bird seed, dog food, and other such stuff.

I run my store business first, pet second so whatever generates foot traffic and turns the buck.

Animals are here for humans to steward and if the Bear is infringing on your teritory, you need to take it out before something or God forbid someone gets hurt.

Dig a big trench with a back hoe, shoot it, and bury the fugger and don't tell anyone.

I know it seems preposterous, but my wife showed me the bear spots in the lawn. I saw them with my own two eyes.

Your dogs need to find another place to pee.

I think this actually has more to do with the cultish behavior of his cats. They have their very own Egyptian god afterall.

I think you should set out food for the bears and then when any show up to be fed, give them guns and knives. As an American we all have a right to keep and arm bears.

When you feed those hairy rascals, make sure it's a low-fiber diet you provide. Otherwise, watch out for bar stools.
