NATURALIST'S NOTEBOOK Black 3ears Shy Giants of the Pocosin By Cynthia Henderson Vega M ntion coastal wildlife, and you probably think of water- fowl or sea creatures. But at some of North Carolina's coastal wildlife refuges and state and federal parks, there's a chance you'll also see one of the state's largest and most fascinating wild mammals — the American black bear. Or maybe not. Although black bears are plentiful in the coastal area, they are naturally shy and more likely will spot you first. Distrustful of their only natural predators, black bears tend to hide when humans are around. Hiding is a remarkable talent for such a massive mammal. North Carolina is known for the size of its bears, says David Rowe, wildlife biologist for the N.C. Wildlife Resources Commission. Males can weigh as much as 600 pounds and adult females between 100 to 300 pounds. 26 SPRING 2000
