Bear Spotted Galloping Thru Carbondale, Illinois Farm Field

Do you doubt that there are more bears in Missouri and Illinois than ever before? Here's more video proof as a black bear was spotted galloping through a field near Carbondale, Illinois recently.

I just came across this YouTube short shared by Scott McCree just a few days ago. Since it's a YouTube short, there's not a lot of context, but the description mentions this video was captured on July 22, 2024 just north of Carbondale, Illinois. Clearly, this is a black bear. No question.

But wait, there's more. Scott also shared another video of the bear near the Williamson County Airport.

Still not done. Scott also shared video of the bear (the same bear I wonder?) eating his pears.

Stay tuned for the next video of bears in Illinois and/or Missouri as they seem to be appearing every other day if not more frequently than that.
