Bear sighted at Ft Wilderness? (12/9)

[PhotoDave219]

Looks like a bear was spotted at the campground. They are at "phase 1 bear sighting" until further notice.

I have no specifics beyond this. I have no idea what a phase 1 bear sighting is, Beyond the blatantly obvious. I have no idea what the phases of bears are. No word as to whether or not The bear in question was wearing a red shirt.

Have fun with this one kids…

Country Bear looking for a new show or maybe a new speaker system?

Does Phase1 mean that only guests at FW are allowed to see him?

 

[disney4life2008]

Lol. Well it is the wilderness so that wouldn't shock me at all.

Is it entitled to bear arms?

 

[bcoachable]

Will there be an up-charge for any guests getting to see said bear?

Must be a tier 1 Fastpass+ attraction

He probably smelled blood on one of the saddles.

it will never get to phase 2 because we all know there is no such thing as phase 2 around here

Is it entitled to bear arms?

Yes as well as bear legs. I don't believe the color of the bear matters either.

Just all black and brown and covered with hair.

He probably smelled blood on one of the saddles.

No no, there was blood on the ground.

In all seriousness, it's not the first time there has been a bear sighting at FW, and it's not really surprising. I know last year we were checking out alternate communities to stay in this winter, and one that we checked out, which had a view of Everest when you exited the development, had signs posted for the residents about bears invading their trash cans. So they're definitely in the area.

Well, in that case, I am convinced that it is a good idea to go someplace else and leave your little bear behind.

Sure it wasn't Humphrey?

Not in the least.

I just think it's amusing that there's a specific status for this.... "phase 1 bear sighting"..... Just makes me laugh with the absurdity of it.

I've heard all sorts of stories about woodland critters and their behaviors as well as the campers. (None I can repeat) and it seems that's where all the shenninagans happen.

Must be staying on property - he's wearing his MagicBand...

Or on the dance floor

I think Phase 1 means an actual sighting, whereas Phase 2 or what ever would be "signs" of a bear in the area (tracks, excrement (they do p o o p in the woods you know), damage to property or people, etc)

That....is very funny. Well done.
