Merry Christmas to you John and your family. The bears look awesome and I love the pic of the black bear attacking the carved one! Incredible! Hope you and yours have a happy and healthy one.
And thanks for all your posts, I am learning a ton from them. I hit a grand slam with your Prime Rib Instructions last weekend The family said this will now replace ham for our traditional Christmas dinner! (no argument from me)

My buddy who has that little bear cub told me it was attacked twice before, but those attacks were at night. Then about 6 months later, he called me and said, "Wait until you see the pictures I got for you !" It was during the day that time, and he actually got pictures. I had to get that one fixed by another friend, because my buddy got so excited, he forgot to turn the flash off, and it had a big reflection from the window he took the picture through. That's why that one is a bit blurry. The original had a big white thing to the right of the tree & bear (looked like a rearview mirror). Last I talked to him, he said that little carving has claw marks across both shoulders, his heels are chewed up, and he has one big fang mark on his butt, about 1/2" deep. He has to touch it up every year.
BTW: That bear is in Potter County, PA----Near Coudersport.
