Even before our military added drones to their arsenal, Hooahbears used drones. Hooahbears most commonly use the drones for surveillance, making sure that they know the position of any visitor or intruder on Mount Hooah.
Drones volunteer for this service. Although it involves long hours, uniformly it appears to them that surveillance work is much better than dying when the mating flight is over.
As discussed, drones are used mainly for surveillance but when the need arises, they can also be used as a formidable weapon. Hooahbears have provided a sharp thorn that the drones can use for attack.
One difficulty with drones is that they are only of use during the daytime, so the Hooahbears have had to devise another surveillance method for night. Another problem is that the drones can be rather noisy, and hooahbears living closest to the hive have lodged some recent complaints about the amount of buzz that goes on.
Originally, there was controversy surrounding the use of drones and the fear that they were keeping track of the Hooahbears themselves. The Colonel ended the debate by handing out fly swatters to any Hooahbear with these concerns. He also pointed out that so far the drones have only been used to find Hooahbears that get lost in the woods of Mount Hooah.
