Gerald Hodge of Appalachia Georgia Friends of the Bears has dedicated his life to defending black bears in the southeast. While these creatures are apex predators, we pose a threat to them as well.

Visit Gerald at Brasstown Bald to learn how you can protect yourself from a bear, bear-proof your house or campsite, and be a friend to our North Georgia black bears. You can also visit their website.
