In fact, you'll probably see dozens of chipmunks, squirrels, skunks, and rabbits without even trying. For a more exotic experience, here's a list of some of other wildlife that live in The Cook Forest and tips on finding them. A black bear can weigh more than 600 lb, and though the powerful male, or boar, can stand 6 feet tall and travel up to 35 mph with ease, it's actually a shy and private creature. They frequently have a white chest. Ursus Americanus is the only bear of the three species found in the U.S. to inhabit Pennsylvania.
Bears are most likely to be found in The Cook Forest where there's food.
You may spot a sow and her cubs in and around lakes, rivers, and river basins looking for a healthy meal of trout. You might also see one climbing a tree to seek out the honey from a beehive. But black bears don't only eat meat, fish and honey, as many stories might have you believe. They eat mostly fruit, nuts and berries. They follow trails, much like humans.
