Things are lively on this episode of the Bear Grease Render as host Clay Newcomb talks about finding a bear den and bringing home a 40’ surprise. Special guest, Terrell Spencer, talks about equipment redundancy as a point of consideration on whether to sell Tess, the squirrel dog. And, we speculate wildly about the mysteries surrounding the grave of Osceola as we wrap up this series on the Seminole war leader.
