@coachkunderwood: The #1 thing to not do while in Gatlinburg. Hand feeding a bear and trying to pet it. #gatlinburg #tennessee #smokymountainsnationalpark #pettingbears Update: Yes they were told by multiple people not to do it. This stuff is why bears are relocated or put down. After I stopped recording, the bear took off with a bag that included a to go box of food (from someone else) and ran up behind the church.
They need to start prosecuting people for doing this kind of stuff. It ultimately causes the animals to be euthanized. Yet the people who do these things “get a fun memory” while the critter is ☠️.

Over 60 bears were put down in 2024, and over half of those were due to behavior by human interaction. Doing this kills our bears. Have common sense people!

They need to up the fines in the city of Gatlinburg to what the national park can charge. They can fine Up to 5k and six month in jail. The city ordinance in Gatlinburg is only $50 plus court cost and community service.
