    But isn't that from a pod? Like a Green Bean pod? If memory serves me correctly... they are smoother and more longer and flatter... We use to rub them against a concrete curb and try to burn each other.... :rofl: :lol: ##smalltownlife...

    Not sure. They were found in bear scat and he’s trying to find out where the kitchen is.

    Kinda remind me of dogwood seed, but maybe a little too big....? That's the only thing that's coming to mind.

    Some wild grape species have big seeds like that... it's the right time of year too. I imagine a bear might like to load up on them before winter.

    It’s a bear season, and if he can identify what the bear is eating he may be able to set up in an area that has that type of food.
