A black bear has been destroying deer feeders on a sugar cane farm I am involved in. The hunting club members notified the game warden who is supposed to set out a trap soon. If they trap the bear they will relocate it, if it has been trapped for that before it will be "euthanized"

Bears are not common in South Louisiana, but I believe their numbers are increasing. I have only seen one in the 50 years I've been living here it was on the side of the road, dead I believe, near the bear crossing signs, mentioned by Col Jagdog above, near Morgan City, La.
