Why did the black bear cross the road? While we can't be sure of the answer, it is confined that a bear was spotted running across Clay Street.
In my hometown of Vicksburg, MS, a woman took to Facebook last Wednesday afternoon with proof that a black bear ran across east Clay Street near the Vicksburg District.
Janet Windham shared a picture she snapped of the bear as it left the roadway.
"My Granddaughter took the picture because I was driving. We'd just turn onto Clay Street from Highway 27," Windham said. "I put it on Facebook because I thought people needed to be aware. "I have never seen a bear like that."
June, July, and August are peak times for people to run across a bear in this state. The summertime is the breeding season for bears, and young male bears are often kicked out of their mother's home territory. They will move to final a new territory nearby.
