I’m going backpacking threw the woods and camping right on lake michigan. Is it likely that I will see a bear. If so what kind and what would I do? And I also heard something about cougars or mountain loins or something that live up there.


only polar bears as they are on the move south to colder climate in Antarctica
If you see a bear it will be a black bear, most likely around a public campground with poor garbage discipline. Don’t bring food into your tent, dispose of garbage properly, if you see a bear take pictures from 50 yards or so away. Don’t mess with any wildlife babies.
I’m sure there are cougars and mountain lions there. Be careful. BTW, Michigan. and you are going “through” the woods. Have fun, be careful. And brush up on your spelling and grammar.
