A friend said he saw one big bear and a small bear in Rockvale, close to Eagleville. I dont think he would make this up.

Back in the mid nineties my ole buddy bronco hunter came to school saying that he had seen a bear in a field in north coffee county. I laughed like you wouldn't believe at him. Well lo and behold maybe a week or two later they killed it or trapped it tullahoma, tn made the paper, so maybe not that crazy. Also seems like I saw the one killed on the interstate in monteagle
