Wyoming Black Bear Hunting – Hunting the Greys River
Big game hunters in search of a new thrill may be interested in the elusive black bear, which is legal to hunt in 32 states and Canada. With locations around the Greys River serving as ground zero for Wyoming black bear hunting, this is one of the premier destinations in the
country. One benefit that bear hunting has in Wyoming in comparison to the also popular Canadian destinations is the fact that there aren’t the swarms of black flies to contend with. The types of bears that you are likely to encounter in this region include color phase black bears, as well as those with larger heads.
A good deal of Wyoming black bear hunting is conducted with baits using ground blinds. Baits can be monitored using trail cameras throughout the Greys River region of Wyoming, which makes it easier to stalk and bait prey even in mountainous terrain. This makes it possible to
determine how many bears are passing by at each bait, as well as their size and color so that hunters are better able to harvest the best trophy. Because black bears can be tricky and elusive, it takes some time to locate and stalk them, making this a more satisfying hunt for many.
Some tips to keep in mind when you are starting your Wyoming bear hunting adventure is that the actual color of the black bear can vary quite a bit. These may actually be chocolate brown, tan, or cinnamon, depending on the bear’s age. It’s also important to keep in
mind that bears are omnivorous by nature, and stalk them according to their regular foraging habits. With the help of trained professionals on a bear hunt, you can use bait to ensure that you are able to harvest the largest possible bear for your efforts.
Wyoming requires a license for black bear hunting, which can be purchased over the counter at most sporting goods stores. You are only able to purchase one permit per calendar year. Wyoming black bear hunting generally takes place in the spring or fall. Although the area
surrounding Greys River is the premier destination for serious black bear hunters, you can also try your hand throughout the state for other trophy game. Some other game that can be found in Wyoming includes elk, mountain goats, antelope, mule deer, whitetail deer and mountain lion.
