Bears
Hi,
Thank you for reaching out to us! To answer your question, rifles can be carried in the forest if you have a hunting permit. However, they must be in their carrying case and unloaded while doing so.
For more rules and regulations before your adventure please visit http://www.fs.usda.gov/activity/texas/recreation/hunting.

Hello,
It is always best to call the park office and speak with an employee to be sure. The phone number for Yellowstone National Park is 307-334-7387 and Glacier National Park is 406-888-7800. For more information you can visit the National Park Service website: http://www.nps.gov/index.htm
Hope that helps! Thanks.

A trail cam set up in an Alberta forest shows just how much goes on in the wilderness when humans aren't around. The cam captured bears, deer and even a mountain lion all passing by the same tree. Our favorite clip comes about halfway through the video, when there are four different grizzlies at the tree, all taking turns doing a Baloo-style back rub.
Hi,
The American black bear (Ursus americanus) lives throughout much of the continent, including northern Canada and Alaska, the Lower 48, and south into Mexico.
