Landi Simone reports on May 27, 2009: "After almost two weeks of baiting and rebaiting the culvert trap, we finally caught this 315-pound bear that came back to the farm at least half a dozen times, destroyed the single home hive (which was banking a dozen mated queens), wrecked stacks of empty comb and supers up by the house, and growled at my kids. We baited the trapwith frames of honey."
