New Mexico Bears

[Deer Creek Hunter]

Took these pictures while bow hunting for Elk in New Mexico. I saw 8 different Bears at this water hole. I ended up shooting a cow Elk from this spot.

I can understand that, not sure if I am interested either, but I did have a bear tag in my pocket when I was in NM just in case. Awesome pictures none the less.

Thanks, The pic of the bear looking streight on was less than 15 yards from my blind. Glad he wasn't hungry for a Elk hunter! He knew I was there I'm sure.
