    GEORGIA BLACK BEAR PROJECT REPORT AND STATUS UPDATE BOBBY BOND, Georgia Department of Natural Resources, Wildlife Resources Division, 1014 Martin Luther King Boulevard, Fort Valley, GA 31030 ADAM HAMMOND, Georgia Department of Natural Resources, Wildlife Resources Division, 2592 Floyd Springs Road, Armuchee, GA 30105 GREG NELMS, Georgia Department of Natural Resources, Wildlife Resources Division, 108 Darling Avenue, Waycross, GA 31501 Abstract: Throughout Georgia, bear populations are stable to increasing in size. Bait station surveys were conducted to determine distribution and population trends of bears in north, central, and south Georgia during July of 2008. Results of these surveys, expressed as percent bait station hits, were 71.04%, 45%, and 35.8% for stations in north, central, and south Georgia respectively. Concurrently, harvest in the north, central, and south Georgia populations was 314, 0, and 57 bears, respectively. The black bear (Ursus americanus) symbolizes the wild qualities of Georgia. Prior to the eighteenth century bears were common in Georgia. However, habitat loss, unrestricted hunting and overall degradation of habitat because of human development contributed to a Fig. 1 – Black Bear Distribution serious population decline. Georgia Department of Natural and Range in Georgia. Resources wildlife management practices, improvements in law enforcement, and social changes all have contributed to the recovery of bear populations. In Georgia, we have 3 more/less distinct bear populations: 1) north Georgia associated with the Southern Appalachians 2) central Georgia along the Ocmulgee River drainage 3) southeast Georgia in/around the Okefenokee Swamp (U. a. floridanus) (Fig. 1). All three populations are believed to be either stable or slightly increasing.
