Currents

I googled that but I’m not finding anything about what a current is as far as bear food.

I'll jump on this thread too. I watched a sow and cub spend 45 minutes browsing around under a ponderosa pine eating the whole time. What the hell were they eating? Pine needles? I can't imagine trying to poop out a wad of needles! Otherwise I'm completely stumped.

I was thinking that was misspelled but I didn’t know the correct word.

Are there cones on that ponderosa? Bears love eating pine nuts and fir/spruce seeds

Yep, rose hips will give the poop that red tint.
