they used to run out onto campus down here at FGCU in SW FLorida. Developed the land and wiped them out for the most part. Panthers too. And bears, they go into heat and will just run into traffic. A few years back, i was riding with a friend and a bear came out of the woods, headbutt our truck going 30 mph (we slowed down from 60 mph when we saw it.
he headbutted the van, put a huge dent, and ran back into the woods like nothing happened. TOUGH animal.
