Beware – These Are The Most Dangerous Animals In Each State
Black Bears in Arkansas
Black bears were almost hunted to extinction in Arkansas during the 1950s, but their population has since rebounded. Today, there are an estimated 3,000-5,000 or more in the state, primarily found in the Interior Highlands of the northwest corner. Although they are generally considered less dangerous than brown bears, they can still harm humans.
While attacks are rare, they have occurred and can be severe. For minimal risk, it’s best to keep food in a bear bag, away from sleeping areas when camping, and make noise while hiking to avoid surprising them.
