Momma Bear and Baby Bear on a lunch date 🐻 The bear population in the populated areas of Lake Tahoe has soared in recent years, so sightings are far more common than they were 30 years ago. As soon as I saw these two, we moved away (across the street) snapped a quick photo and went on our way. These bears are pretty accustomed to humans (and probably saw/heard me before I saw them), but they are still wild and it is super important to keep your distance to make sure they don’t perceive you as a threat. 🐻 #adventuresinsweets #laketahoe #westshoretahoe #laketahoebears #bearsofinstagram #optoutside #tahoma #homewood #glt #fallfoliage #bearsighting
