Most bears shy away from people and pose little threat to humans and livestock. They should not be fed.
Butler, Mo. – A black bear wandering north of typical Missouri bear haunts was spotted June 11 and 12 in Bates County, about 70 miles south of Kansas City. The bear has been reported during the past few weeks in Barton and Vernon counties.
On June 12, Lacey Cook spotted the bear in a field about eight miles southeast of Butler. Cook is a school teacher who studied wildlife management in college and has hunted black bears in Minnesota.
“He was just kind of walking back and forth, wandering around,” Cook said. “I think it’s pretty cool.”
