have.)

by Randy Cross, Biologist

Wildlife biologists have beenmonitoring black bears inMaine since 1975. Over thecourse of this monitoring pro-gram, a few bears have beenmonitored for over 20 years.

The Legacy Of One Bear - Sara (ID 225)__Continued from page A1

legacy of one of those bears Sara (#225) who started herlife in January 1972.

Sara was born in a warm den inJanuary, just as hundreds ofother bear cubs are born inMaine. This den would be herhome for 3 months, where shewould nurse, gain strength, anddevelop from a 12 ounce, near-ly hairless creature; into a

bright-eyed 8 pound miniaturebear. When she left the sanctu-ary of her den that spring, shewould follow her motherthroughout the summer and denwith her again through the nextwinter. Most likely, in June of1973, weighing only 30-40

pounds, she left her mother forgood and took on the challengesof surviving alone in the vastforest lands of northern Maine.

At the same time Sara wasbecoming acquainted with thewoods of northern Maine,

efforts were being made by theMaine Department of InlandFisheries & Wildlife (MDIFW)to start a research project togain a better understanding of

bears in Maine. The section ofwoods that Sara bear was borninto was chosen to be one of thestudy areas for the bear project.Biologists began capturing

bears to monitor their survival,general health, and reproduc-tion in 1975. MDIFW used thisinformation to develop a bearmanagement system and a mon-itoring program that is still usedtoday to monitor the status ofMaine's bear population.

Although MDIFW wildlifebiologists began capturingbears in 1975, Sara managed toescape capture until August 11,1980. On that day she was cap-tured with a cable foot restraint,given the study identificationnumber of 225, and namedSara. She was the 225th bearcaptured since the study began.By this time, Sara was eight

years old and had grown to 150pounds. She was fitted with aradio collar that emitted signals

that could be used to locate hereither from a plane or on theground. From this point for-ward, Sara, as well as manyother female bears, would bevisited in her den each winter

by biologists who would docu-ment her successes and failuresat producing and raising cubs.

The following winter (February19, 1981), researchers foundSara with two offspring justover a year old (yearlings) thathad been born in the previouswinters den. . In the 1980s,

bears in Northern Maine typi-cally didnt begin having cubsuntil they were 6 years old andthen continued to have cubs

every other year thereafter. So,this was likely Saras second lit-ter of cubs. One of these year-lings was a female (ID 236)who weighed a remarkable 63

pounds, which is strong evi-dence that natural foods for

bears were in great abundanceduring the preceding summerand fall. This yearling receiveda radio collar of her own so thatwhen she left her mother inJune, she could also be fol-lowed through her life, con-tributing valuable informationto the monitoring project.

The next summer and fall(1981) was not nearly as pro-ductive for natural bear foods inthis part of Maine. At this time,

beechnuts were a very impor-tant food source for bears in

northern Maine in the fall.Unfortunately, the nuts werenot abundant that year, forcing

bears to den very early and inpoor condition. When biolo-gists visited Sara in her den inMarch of 1982, they found herto be very thin, weighing just100lbs and had no cubs withher. At 10 years old, Sara wasentering the prime years of herlife. Other mature females wereexperiencing similar struggles.Very few cubs were born this

winter in the forests of nMaine.

Bears are well adapted table to survive lean timtake advantage of plentisources when they areable. As is often the cextremely lean year owas followed by an exnarily bountiful year fo

bears. The next fall, thaged on an abundant

beechnuts late into the entered dens in remgood shape.

When recaptured on Ma1983 Sara had nearly dher weight in the year sihad last been seen in tSnuggled under her healthy female cubs C

454), Belle (ID 455), an(ID 456). All 3 were ralared as yearlings the fowinter and a matdynasty began to take sh

Karen and all her cubstudied over the next 2until 2003 when her ranal failed due to a faultyconnection installed manufacturer. That was loss to the research team

efforts to recapture her the fol-lowing spring were unsuccess-ful. She may still be roamingthose woods at 32 years old.

Karens sister, Belle (ID 455),gave birth to her first litter of 2cubs in 1989 when she was 6years old. One of these cubs

was a female, Josie (ID 1048).This bear, the granddaughter ofSara, has provided reproductiveinformation the next 26 years ofher life. By the time she was inher teens, Josie grew to becomethe largest female bear in thestudy area. The biologists wereable to document 11 of her lit-ters, including one male (ID3390) this winter (2015), set-ting a record for the oldestfemale to give birth in the study(a record previously held by 2

females at 25 years old).

Over 3000 research bears havebeen handled between the timeof Saras first capture and whenJosie and her young male cubwere handled on March 20,2015. Sara had 11 offspringwhich produced 18 grandchil-dren (2 are still being moni-tored); 32 great grandchildren

(5 are currently being moni-tored); 31 great-great grand-children (7 are currently beingmonitored); and 13 great, great,great grandchildren (2 of whichare being monitored). 105 dif-ferent bears have been taggedthat are direct descendants ofSara, representing 6 generationsof bears. Sixteen of these, nowequipped with radio collars, are

providing reproductive infor-mation in this study area.Unlike males, who instinctively

will roam many miles fromwhere they were raised, femalesreside very close to where theywere born. All of these femalesin this family line live within afew miles of where Sara wasfirst captured back in 1980.

Incessantly scouring the uni-verse (and my back yard) forthe weird, the wacky, and thethoughtful so you dont haveto.

Just heard a news story about a

Sweet Sixteen party thatended up with someone gettingshot. Whoa, talk about an oxy-moronic situation. I mean, arethere really any sweet six-teens anymore?

We went out to dinner the othernight with the folks; it was myturn to buy (we switch off). Acouple of the dinners were fair-ly pricey, which made the bill

pretty hefty. I tipped my usualtwo percent (just kidding), butthat got me thinking (uh-oh). Ifthe four of us had, say, burgersand a beverage vs. four spe-cials, there would be quite asignificant difference in billtotals, which is what most of us

base our tips on. The waitresswrote the order, submitted it,

brought the food to us, andchecked in. The same amountof work occurred, but there wasa huge difference in the bill.., soa much heftier tip followed...see where I am going?

In case you missed it, aNewser.com story 11Celebrities You Didnt KnowWere Pierced. Important stuff,I do say! If it makes you feel

better, I missed it too. I got asfar as the headline.

I get occasional requests frompeople wanting to connect with

me on Linkedin. Why? I amnever there.

So, theres a big election com-ing up... in nineteen months,and already I am sick of hear-ing about it. The whole thingcould be a lot easier if candi-dates would just state explicitlywhat they believe and stand forinstead of the glittering gener-alities. I have concluded a can-didate cant be all things to all

people, so what exactly do theystand for? Tell me! It wouldmake campaigning and voting alot simpler.

My Friends, I Am a Man ofAction! said Roger Weber,running for a Minnesota Houseseat; he is now being sued by aneighbor over a property-linedispute near Nashwauk. Ratherthan working with an arbitratoror mediator, or letting the legal

process run its course, Weber in2013 took a chain saw andsliced completely in half thelarge, two-car garage thatWeber says sat half on his prop-erty and half on the neighbors.[St. Paul Pioneer Press]

The family that sells togethergoes to... well, read on.Recently, a single traffic stop inAlderson, West Virginia, result-ed in the arrest of six peoplefrom the same family, traffick-ing in stolen power tools(including one man who tradeda leaf blower, hedge trimmerand weed trimmer for Percocet

pills). However, last month,members of an even more

charming family were caught inraids in Elyria, Ohio. Officersfrom three jurisdictions arrested34 people all related to eachother in connection with a$400,000 drugoperation. [News of the Weird]

Say it isnt so! Him want morethan cookie! Another day,another costumed characterarrested in Times Square.Police arrested a man dressed asCookie Monster after heallegedly groped a 16-year-old.

NYPD told Gothamist thatauthorities arrested RanulfoPerez, 48, after he allegedlypulled [a] victim into a hugand forcibly touched her

breasts , while dressed asSesame Streets resident choco-late chip addict. The girl was

part of a tour group that waswalking outside the TimesSquare Toys R Us. Perez ischarged with forcible touchingin a manner injurious to a childless than 17, and second-degreeharassment. Although TimesSquare has ostensibly cleanedup from its lean, mean years asan epicenter of debauchery, itssuffered a recent spate of crimi-nal behavior by the costumed

characters, who have also beencriticized for demanding moneyfrom witless tourists inexchange for photos. Perez is

just the latest costumed per-former in Times Square to becharged with a crime. Last year,the NYPD arrested more than18 of the performers, includingElmos, Spider-Men, Iron Men,and at least one street-brawlinBatman. [Huffington Post]

Few words irk me like the wordbae. JS.

Oops! Thats his story and....Mothers Day may be a littleawkward for Larry McElroynext month. Sheriffs deputies

in Lee County, Georgia, said

McElroy, 54, accidentally shothis mother-in-law with a 9mmpistol when he was trying toshoot an armadillo,WALB.com reports. Thearmadillo died from the shot,

but the bullet ricocheted off theanimal, hit a fence and wentinto the back door of his moth-er-in-laws mobile home adistance of about 100 yards.Then it went through the reclin-er where the 74-year-oldwoman was sitting and into herback. Carol Johnson, 74, wastaken to a nearby hospital and isexpected to recover. Officialshave not said whether McElroyfaces any charges for the shoot-ing. James Morgan, the

Dougherty County Ex

Coordinator, said that sarmadillos is recommenresidents that live in the or a trap can be used to them. At first I ask if tin the city or county, shooting is an effective getting rid of them. Hyou have to be safe whdo that, Morgan told tion.

Finally, as of this wspring has finally sprungthe temp hit 70, I thoughtoo warm, and I started for wint... only kiddingspring!

Later.

April, whats left of it anyway, isa fine time to fine tune some wishists for most hikers, especially

beginners . This past SundayAtticus and I were down inMassachusetts at a book singingand one of the most commonlyasked questions was from thosewanting to climb a mountain, or a4000-footer. The answer dependson too many variables. Fornstance: the month, the trail con-

ditions (snow still?), the weatherthat day (too windy for abovetreeline?), and the persons con-ditioning. Ignoring all those fac-tors and considering all things tobe in optimal condition for a latespring or summer hike, and nottaking any responsibility for yourwellbeing, here are ten of theeasier 4000-footers to climb.

Having said that, I dont believethere is such a thing as an easy4000-foot mountain. NewHampshire trails are rugged andthere is a lack of those thingsknown as switchbacks in otherareas of the country which makemany of the trails steeper than

you might think.

Climbing a mountain isnt easybut if you are bound and deter-mined to do some 4,000-footers,heres ten you may consider easi-er.

Mount Pierce: Walk up the

Crawford Path, the oldest contin-uously used hiking trail in thecountry, about 3.0 miles, bang au-turn and walk another 0.2 of amile. Youre above treeline just

and the views will leave youwanting more. Just a mile up thetrail is the summit of MountEisenhower which has an even

better view.

Mount Eisenhower: Like I justsaid, it has an even better viewthan Mount Pierce. MountWashington looms above youlike a beast. This is perhaps oneof the best places in the WhiteMountains where a perspectiveof Mount Washington is bestseen. Beware of the large cairnon the summit; it typically has anest in it with plenty of flying

and stinging beasts. If you arenot coming from the CrawfordPath, take the Edmands Path andthe Mount Eisenhower Loop.This is a 6.6 mile round trip with2,750 feet of elevation gain.

Mount Jackson: This, likeEisenhower and Pierce, is also onthe Southern Presdidential stringof mountains heading down fromMount Washington. Its Piercesnext door neighbor. Straight upand back from Crawford Notch

by way of the Webster-JacksonTrail is 5.2 miles and 2,150 feetof elevation gain. In the winterweve often done the straightshot, but in better weather its funto string other mountains alongthe way. A popular route is toadd on Mount Webster (not a

4,000-footer). This loop is 6.5miles and 2,400 feet of elevation.

Mount Tom: Across the way inCrawford Notch from theCrawford Path is one of the gate-ways to the Willey Range. Fromleft to right are Mount Willey,Mount Field, and Mount Tom.Tom on its own is considered one

of the easier climbs. Take theAvalon Trail, the A-Z Trail, andthe Mount Tom Spur Trail. Its atotal of 5.8 miles and 2,250 feetof elevation gain. There are twoviewpoints at the top. One istoward the Presidential Rangeand the other is on the backsidewith a view into thePemigewasset Wildnerness. Thesecond is the true summit. TheWilley Range is famous for GrayJays and their boldness in askingfor treats. The best photo ops arefound having one of them eat outof your hand or you can get justas bold as the birds by placingsome granola on your head. Yes,they will land on you and eat it.Just hope they dont leave any-thing else behind.

Mount Waumbek: Most hikersdont seem to like Waumbek.Im not one of them. The woodshave an entirely different feel tothem. Old Mans Beard, a tangleof wild bayou-like moss, clingsto trees both dead and alive. Itfeels like you are walkingthrough an enchanted graveyardand the wind can whistle andhowl over the last mile to thesummit sounding like the moanof a ghost. Gray Jays will alsovisit on this route, usually onMount Starr King, a mile fromthe top of Waumbek. The hike is7.2 miles and the elevation gainis 2,700 feet. Its deceptivethough. Ive always found themost taxing part of the hike to bethe very first mile or so along theStarr King Trail. After that it

seems easy. There is a view of

the Presidential Range from StarrKing, but to get one onWaumbek, you need to walk

beyond the summit a hundredyards or so.

Mount Tecumseh: People look at

Tecumseh as only a 5.0 mileround trip with a summit heighttied for the shortest (withIsolation) at 4,003 feet as nothingspecial, but dont be fooled.Technically, this is one of the eas-iest 48, but there is a never-end-ing second mile that is punishing.It feels like a Stairmaster. For atwist, on the way down, I like tocut across the Sosman Trail, just

below the summit, to the top ofthe ski area. On the far side thereis a dirt access road down themountain. I prefer descendingthis way because it opens up toviews of the Sandwich Range,including the Osceolas and theTripyramids. If you stick to thetrail it is a 5.0 mile round trip and2,300 feet of elevation gain.

Mount Osceola: Its fair to saythat the summit of MountOsceola could be considered oneof the best places in the WhiteMountains to catch views. Thetrail is deceptive over the firstquarter of a mile as you makeyour way through a boulder-strewn trail. It gets easier thanthis. This list does not come inany order, but this may be one ofthe easiest trails. The MountOsceola Trail is 6.4 milesroundtrip with 2,050 feet of ele-vation gain. Add in the summit ofviewless East Osceola, if youwish, by doing another mile eachway.

Mount Hale: Hale is a lot likeTecumseh. Its only 2.2 mileseach way but the problem with

short distances is that you startyour climb sooner. The Hale

Brook Trail offers 2,300 felevation gain in those 2.2 (The AMCs White MouGuide states that a 1,000-felevation gain in a mile.tells you how short but nsweet the climb is.) But in

parison, you can get up andHale rather quickly when cering other 4,000-footers.

Cannon Mountain: Cannon in with the shotough buggers Hale Tecumseh. The Kinsman Trail is a straight shot to thin 2.2 miles with 2,200 felevation gain. Most of thwork comes in the first mithere are places where the tso rough with tumbled youll wonder if you are on at all. The selling point otrail, which makes it one favorites in all the mounand worth the risk of twisknee or an ankle, are CCliffs, one of the best viethe mountains. They sit

where the Old Man used to over New Hampshire. there its a rather easy jaunhop to the summit where yofind tourists. Like Graythey will also eat nearlything.

Mount Garfield: Garfield wfirst 4,000-footer Atticus climbed together. At the tseemed very difficult but years have gone on I realione of the easiest. The rounis ten miles, which may noteasy, but the view from themit makes it all worth it. Thvation gain is a moderate with only 3,000 climbed five miles up the trail. Cothat with Cannon, HaleTecumseh and youll see

think this is so easy.

Dear Friends,

For the last four years I havewritten a monthly news column toinform my constituents on what ishappening in Concord and in the

District.

This months column is different it is a call to action.

I am asking you to reach out tothe Governor and tell her to sup-

port our seniors and our mostvulnerable citizens and not take$7 million from nursing homes,mid-level care, and home healthcare in New Hampshire.

While much of the focus in thenews has been on the theft of

funds to the private and countynursing homes, I am just as con-cerned about the devastation thatwill be caused to home care,home health, and mid-levelcareto the tune of over $10 mil-lion ($5.1 in state general fundsand a matching amount from the

federal government) should theGovernors raid prevail.

In the state budget, these long-term care services are organizedin the following categories:

Mid-level care organiza-tions: assisted living facilities orresidential care homes that are a

step below nursing homes interms of level of care and do notnecessarily provide 24/7 nursingcare. Home health care waiv-er services: medical-type servic-es provided by licensed homehealth agencies and VNAs(skilled nursing, physical thera-

py, etc.) at home. Home support waiver

services: non-medical servicesthat can be provided by unli-censed caregivers (personalcare, meals, adult medical daycare, home modification services,adult in-home care, etc.) at home.Senate Bill 8, which tells theGovernor to follow the law,

passed the Senate 16 to 8 on aroll call vote. Although it turned

out that waythis should nothave been a partisan issue.

Imagine my surprise when themajority of Senate Democratsvoted against the bill, whichwould send the money back to thenursing homes and home healthcare agencies. The bill is now inthe House Finance Committee

for consideration.

During testimony in the Houselast week, the CEO of the GraniteState Home Health Association,which represents New

Hampshires home health/visitingnurse agencies testified thatthese agencies provide a fullrange of services to Medicaidclients including those enrolled

in the states Choices forIndependence (CFI) program.These services mean vulnerable

seniors who are eligible for insti-tutional care can stay in theirhomes at a much lower cost tothe Medicaid program.

Home care agencies have strug-gled for years to provide highquality services at 2006 reim-bursement rates. The cost ofwages and benefits for home careworkers increases each year andit is increasingly difficult torecruit qualified workers to care

for the growing numbers of elder-ly people who require services.

Many agencies have made thedifficult decision not to accept

new CFI clients becaMedicaid doesnt cover thTaking funds from the hocommunity-based care

Spring Is here - Its Time To TakeDown Birdfeeders!_________________Cosauke...

Adventures inHomesteading

eth

Weick

EspalierThis Spring Ive tried somethingnew: espalier. The official defi-nition reads: a fruit tree or orna-mental shrub whose branches aretrained to grow flat against awall, supported on a lattice, or aframework of stakes. In my caseit was an artistic answer to aninconvenient problem. A fewSprings ago, after completing thecabin and making it through ourfirst winter, I had planted a hand-ful of young fruit trees - pears,

peaches, and apples - to comple-ment the walnut, blueberries,raspberries, and old applesalready present on our home-stead. Of these small rootstock

plantings, the most vigorous was

a Northern Spy apple. It is one ofmy favorite apples to eat, and thetree itself is a vigorous, upright-growing variety. I had planted itsome distance off the northeastcorner of the cabin, behind thethen-garden space, and in front ofthe mess of slash, brush, andstump sprouts that characterizedthe back half of our clearingwhich we had yet to tame andutilize.

The dirt was rich in this area, andthe tree thrived under direct sun-light. It seemed like an idealspot. Then last year, fortuitousupcycling and an unanticipated

project left us with second-handcarport pieces and a collection of

windows for a greenhouse.Roots, rocks, slash, and stumpswere cleared, ribs uprighted, and- just before winter descended -our makeshift greenhouse wascompleted.

Which is totally thrilling.However it sits directly (and hereI mean directly) behind my

beloved Northern Spy.

Right now, its not an issue. Thetree is neither tall nor broadenough to create a significantshade issue, and the roots are notintruding on this new growing

space. But this tree comes fromtall and healthy pedigree, and theproblem is not many years off.

The original solution that Ryanand I talked of was simply dig-ging it up and putting it else-where. Should be easy, a onceand done solution. But as thetime to do so approached, I wasanthropomorphizing the tree in aserious way. I doubted pulling itout of its home turf that it hadtaken to so readily. I also beganto question my ability to dig upthe tree, roots and all, withoutthwarting its short-term growth.

So then the second solutionbegan to sound more appealing,also exciting and creative and

with the challenge of somethingnew: keep the tree pruned small,and control its impact in the areain this manner. It would be quitethe task - Northern Spy is notknown for being small, nor evencompact. Its roots would likelystill become problematic in thefuture, but the shade impactwould be limited while addingsome artistry to the landscape.

It was with some trepidation andwhispered apologies that Iapproached the tree with pruners,loppers, and some bonsai wire. Ihad only a vague plan in mind,and let it change and transform asI snipped my way around thetree.

A part of me is still holding mybreath. But I also smile as I lookout the window and see the treeof stacked orbs delicately stand-ing at attention by the corner ofthe greenhouse. It will be anongoing project so long as I amhere to complete it.

Springtime means gardentime!Its time to tidy your perennialgarden, pull the weeds from yourvegetable patch, or design a new

garden space. Contact Beth [email protected] for all

your garden needs: annual ,perennial, herbal, edible , orornamental (see Business

Directory listing under GardenDesign & Services).

Despite some deep snow packstill across some of the state,the long-anticipated spring hasfinally arrived to NewHampshire. The strong springsunshine, longer days andwarmer temperatures not onlymelt the snow, it lures hungry

bears out of winter torpor. Asbears start to get active, let itserve as a reminder that it is

time to put the birdfeeders awayuntil next fall. To help preventbear visits, the New HampshireFish and Game Department rec-ommends not feeding birdsfrom April 1 to December 1.

By taking action now, you canprevent attracting a bear to yourhome. Do not wait for a bear toget the birdfeeder and thenrespond. Doing so encouragesforaging behavior by bears nearresidences. A single foodreward will cause the bear toreturn and continue to searchthe area for food. Bear-humanconflict mitigation is far moresuccessful when people are

proactive.

Black oil sunflower seeds aresimply too high a quality offood (high in fat and protein)for bears to ignore, explainsFish and Game Bear BiologistAndrew Timmins. Natural bearfoods during spring and sum-mer are generally high in carbo-hydrates and low in protein andfat. As a result, birdseed is highon the menu! If bears have pre-viously acquired sunflowerseeds at your home, they will be

back looking for more. So takedown birdfeeders and secureother attractants.

While bear-human conflictscontinue to fluctuate from oneyear to the next, conflicts in

New Hampshire have stabilizedover the past decade at 695 peryear. This stable trend repre-sents a real success story andhas only been possible due tothe willingness of the NewHampshire public to preventconflicts and the dedicatedefforts of staff from USDAWildlife Services and N.H. Fishand Game. Despite the

progress, there is still plenty ofwork ahead. Common attrac-

tants such as birdfeedunsecured garbage con

Inspiring Words for You!

Dear Friends, how is your prayer lifegoing? Do you pray at all? Prayer

becomes a necessity when we realize that weneed God's help. Does prayer guide our lives, or

is it our last resort when trouble strikes? Wesometimes fall into the habit of making plansand then asking God to bless them, or prayingonly in moments of desperation. God doeswant us to turn to Him in moments of need. ButHe also wants us to remember that we needHim all the time Prov. 3:56.. Dear God, pleaseguide me as I walk through this life. Help menot to act only by my own wisdom, but to seekYour will in every situation. Don't forget topray! God bless you all!
