Seen 2 bears in North Central WA along FSR's in Late September, when its hot i know a lot of ranchers complain about bears getting into their cattle stock tanks to bathe in Aug and September around here.

December in WV. Season runs until December 31st. Lucked into mine, but the hound guys will tree them up until the end depending on the year.

Saw one on November 21st here in MT this year. Little fella so let it walk.

November 11 for me in California. My girlfriend could have got one last week at work but forgot her rifle. I’ve seen tracks or bears every month of the year but after early October daylight activity really seems to drop off.

And they even get some - many fewer than the October week though https://dep.nj.gov/njfw/bears/black-bear-harvest-data/
