What would you do if you received a call from a neighbor saying that your bee equipment was scattered across multiple yards? What would be YOUR first thought?

In today’s episode, Jim invites Beekeeping Today Podcast’s Jeff Ott to the show to talk about bears in the bee yard and how, no matter what… it is always a surprise - especially when your bees are in an area where there are “no bears”. 

When encountering bears, this saying may come to mind, as you climb out of your vehicle: “If it’s black, fight back. When it’s brown, lay down, when it’s white, say good night’. 

Have you encountered bears in your bee yard? Lost equipment? If so, Jim would like to hear from you!

We hope you enjoyed today's episode. Please follow today and leave a comment. We'd love to hear from you!
