Big Bear's beloved bald eagles Jackie and Shadow have welcomed their first egg of 2025! I was among 700 people in the hall to hear Donald Trump address the World Economic Forum in Davos. I wondered whether his blunt style landed.

"The egg and Jackie are both fine. Congratulations to her for an efficient, smooth delivery!" Friends of Big Bear Valley wrote.

A man was attacked by a hungry bear on his way home from the grocery store on Sunday, only to be saved by his quick-thinking neighbor. The man, named Andrew Nierer, was attacked by the small black bear on a street in Jim Thorpe, Pennsylvania, after walking back from the store along a trail through the woods.

A rabies diagnosis following a bear attack that injured a man in Carbon County explains the aggression, officials say.
