We want to give a big THANK YOU to the Tennessee legislators who helped pass the new law addressing the feeding of black bears.
Living here in the Smoky Mountains, we see firsthand how bears that get fed makes them associate food with people and often leads to dangerous situations for both the bear and the community.
THAT IS WHY when we were designing our van wrap we knew we HAD to advocate for the bears. Because we do alot of driving and maybe this small reminder on our van could possibly make people think twice.
This law is an important step toward protecting Tennessee’s bears and helping keep them wild where they belong. I’m truly grateful to see our state taking this seriously.
If you live or visit bear country, please remember: a fed bear is a dead bear. Let’s all do our part to protect them.
