MONTANA
hat’s a homeowner supposed to do when a grizzly bear takes a shine to their 6-foot-tall shed and starts using it as a combination scent post/back scratcher/claw-sharpening-and-nailpolishing device? Jamie Goguen realized she had a big problem indeed when a very large grizzly — estimated at between 700 and 800 pounds — began enthusiastically tearing up the generator shed on her property. Fortunately, the folks at Montana Fish, Wildlife and Parks know a thing or two reported, teaming up with Goguen to install electric fencing that should discourage future visits and “prevent further conflicts with humans and structures.” We just hope the grizzly finds a decent replacement. You know how it is when you get an itch; you’ve just got to scratch it, no matter where you are.
