We have one that lives on our property. That one had a sweet white pach on its chest. As long as they dont start associating people with food, they wont eat you. Same with gators.

No one has ever been killed by a black bear in Louisiana.

Every season, tens of thousands of hunters go into the woods with black bears, cottonmouths, rattlesnakes, copperheads, coyotes, etc. and the number one accident is human induced (tboys 30-30, tree stands, ATVs, etc). Rarely ever hear of anyone getting killed by wildlife in Louisiana (better chance of getting killed by t-boys pitbull/curdog mix).

Every day people go fishing and swimming in waters with alligators, sharks, stingrays, gafftops, cottonmouths, and the number one thing that you need to worry about is human induced (boating accidents number one, lightning, etc.)
