On this West Virginia Morning, the black bear is West Virginia’s state mammal and lucky visitors can occasionally see them in the woods, but spring is also a time when they are out and hungry. We meet a photographer who has encountered several bears over the years in his career.
Also, in this show, Gov. Jim Justice signed a new abortion law that targets patients concerned with the development of a fetus, and FEMA has put West Virginia at the top of its list for federal response efforts.
