Black Bears- An Introduction to your Neighbors

December 20, 2015

Black Bears – An Introduction to your Neighbors

Saturday, January 23rd, 1-2 p.m.

The black bear population in Massachusetts has grown significantly since the 1970s. It’s now quite possible that you may see a black bear in the woods or in your neighborhood while they forage for food.

Join us in the Great Hall for a FREE program with Ralph Taylor, MassWildlife Connecticut Valley District Supervisor, as he describes the history and status of the American black bear in Massachusetts, behavioral changes of bears, current research, human/bear conflicts, and tips on coexisting with black bears. Wheelchair accessible.
