A frantic father called into 911 to report that his son called him saying that there was a bear in the house! As shocking as it was to most, The Mike & Carla Morning Show was even more surprised as to how nonchalant the 911 operator was to the situation. The operator actually asked the father if he knew how the bear got into the house! Seriously? What does that matter? There's a bear in the house now...let's work on getting it out!!!!!
According to what we know, everything worked out and nobody was harmed, including the bear. But all of a sudden, listeners started texting and calling in with their own "bear" stories! Of course, living in the state of Nevada, we do have our share of encounters. Carla Rea herself talked about her "bear" story while up in northern Nevada. While with other family members, seeing bears up in a tree just minding their own business.
"911 Operator, what's your emergency? There's a bear in my house!"
One caller talked about his encounter with a group of bears that decided to inhabit a condo! Nobody was going in and those that might have been in there weren't coming out. It was a dicey situation, but as it turns out, all involved decided to go their own way.
We have all seen videos and been told what to do when you encounter a bear...not sure if clapping your hands shouting, "hey bear, hey bear" works. Not too mention, we have no interest in finding out either!
While on vacation in Tennessee, one woman told her story of a bear clawing through the rood of her daughter's new Bronco. From the cabin looking outside, the daughter was surprised to see a huge bear leaning out the window of her vehicle!
All great stories, but again, taking the cake is the 911 operator that you have to hear. It's all included in the segment below from this morning...and enjoy!

Where Nevada Ranks With Attacks By Wild Animals
Living out in the deserts, you have to wonder where Nevada ranks when it comes to people being attacked by wild animals. The Mike & Carla Morning Show started talking about this the other morning. All started with story about a young lady tubing on a river headed toward an alligator. First off, it's good to know that the state of Nevada is not even in the Top 10!
According to a recent article put out by Outforia, there have been no recorded deaths of attacks by wild animals in the states of Delaware, North Dakota or Rhode Island. No reports over the past two decades! Not really sure where the Silver State ranks, but considering all the wild life, fatalities are very low.
The difference between Southern and Northern Nevada!
Of course living here in Southern Nevada, it's a little different than what hikers see in Northern Nevada. Oh sure, we have the occasional coyote, even mountain lions have been spotted wondering around. The one huge difference might be the appearance of a black bear! However, encounters with these and other wild life end in death.
On the other hand, bears are listed at the top when it comes to attacks by wild animals. Followed by sharks, snakes, alligators and mountain lions. Okay, so Nevada does have three out the five animals listed, so the warning is just be careful!
With all this considered, you might be a little surprised by what states rank in the Top 5 when it comes to deadly attacks. The good news is that Nevada is ranked near the bottom of this list. Maybe because we all know and stay away from those animals that can do us the most harm!
The states that made the Top 10 might surprise you. States like New York, Pennsylvania, and Michigan...all in the Top 10! What states made the Top 5...just scroll down to see...and enjoy!

This one was a but of a surprise. When it comes to wild animal attacks, Texas is #1? But when you look at the stats that over the past 20 years, close to 600 people have been killed by wild animals in Texas, it's shocking. Especially when you see that California at #2 has only had less than 300. But, there ya go....so when you hit Texas, keep your head on a swival!
