Non Sequitur by Wiley Miller for June 25, 2023

Hey! The signs are all spelled right. Have the bears been studying?

I’ve got a bad feeling about this.

Where’s Carson Wentz?

Scare him into jumping off the cliff and get your meat tenderized…

“Dead ahead” certainly fits.

We used to call these things a “Look Out”. So….look out.

His back pack and cap will eventually be found by a search party!!!

There should be one more sign: Look back or leap. Either way, you’re dead meat.

Go get him, guys!

He wasn’t even a hunter, hikers get a pass i feel

Table d’hôte provides its own bear-size toothpick.

He’s not a hunter. No gun. The walking stick shows he’s a hiker. Should the bears give him a break since he’s not a hunter, and poses no threat to them. Does he deserve a harsh penalty for trying to get to Hunter’s Point when he is a mere hiker and not a hunter at all?

I always love the bears.

The bears look well-fed

Support the right to arm bears.

When the bears of Yellowstone have had enough.

And when they come up the path for you, do you let the bear eat you or jump off the cliff?

When I was younger, and stupider, I went into a bar because the sign said it was “ladies night” thinking that was the special. You know, like fish night at the American Legion. Lessons were learned.

And here I thought Hunter’s Point was a naval shipyard in San Francisco.

The sunrise is gorgeous.

YAY!!! Wiley Bears!! YAY!!! (And we all know who the hunters are…)

No sir. I was excited to see how the bears would show up!

fair exchange. Lots of people visit parks to see the bears. Turn around is fair exchange. And, in this case, bears are looking at a human, but with the idea of a little ‘all you can eat’ buffet.

Bears sighted human. Dinner at 7.

Dinner is served!

That’s all right, I got it!

Reminded me of a buffalo jump in Wyoming; the buffalo were herded over a cliff—fed the whole tribe.

If attacked by a bear, play dead. It will be good practice for when you die a couple of minutes later.

Life’s about to become unbearable for him!

The bears seem to be discussing recipes…

The bears never fail to amuse me -

support the right to arm bears ;)

just glad you are doing what you do.

Love those Wiley bears :)

I was thinking more along the lines of “Wiley’s Bears spell better that half the U.S. population.”

It must be the end of the salmon run. No more berries either.

The difference between “sighting bears,” “bear sightings,” and “bears sighting.”

Oops! Meant to write “Wiley bears have their picnic!”

LOL ……. Great one, Wiley. No confusion whatsoever!

just glad to see the Wiley bears enjoying themselves!!

Looks like “Bears Point” to me. I see at least one bear pointing. :)

His girlfriend with a sleeping bag down by the lake on a hot night is named Sue Veed

The bears are always the hunters here.

The bears are back. Yes.

@WILEY, Dear Wiley, Please don’t sweat the small details, Your art is (mostly) self explanatory, and don’t worry too much ‘bout those poor souls that haven’t had coffee yet. They’ll catch up eventually ! just keep the goods coming our way (I mean the Wiley Bears deserve a little more spotlight time. Don’t you think ? ) But what do I know right ?

If there’s a fork in the trail, bear left.

Absolutely Brilliant, Clever, and funny. This comment was before your(Creator) comment. I used to teach Hunter Education courses in California…

The clue was “Dead Ahead.”

Love the bears

Thankfully, their spotter scope doesn’t have a rifle attached.

Just checking him out …

Yes, I did figure that out!

One way to see a bear or two.

He found his aim but lost his Bearings!

there’s a sucker born every minute…

Which makes me wonder (actually, in either case) – should the apostrophe be after the “s”, because the bears are the hunters (and they’re hunting multiple prey)?

I am surprised the cons didn’t make a stupid joke. Maybe there is hope.

Hence my immediate reaction to the hunter, “Hit the dirt!”

All the Wiley bears seem to be male. The REAL danger is getting between a Mother Bear and her cub.

As soon as I saw the first frame I was wondering what the bears are up to now.
