Bears .......... they'll eat just about anything. Cherries and berries - oh yeah. I suppose deer would eat berries if in reach, have no idea about cherries.
Bear determination - A bear tore the lid - hinges and all - off a big, old commercial chest freezer at a camp up the road from ours. It smelled what turned out to be an empty hot dog wrapper left over from the deer hunting season. That was all that was in the freezer, and it happened a couple years ago. The freezer was on the back patio of that camp and didn't work - they just used it in deer season with ice in it.
If any of you guys would like some bears of your very own ............. we can lend you a few. Pa. has way too many of them.
