The Editor,
Hello Tri-City residents,
It’s now September and just as things change for you after Labour Day and the end of summer, so it does for us bears.
Myself and my bruin brothers and sisters, both adults and cubs, are pretty much done with the local blueberry fields and wild vine berries now.
We are looking to fatten up for the oncoming winter season. We need to consume 20,000 calories a day and will stop at nothing to do so.
We get drawn to household waste and compost bins as they are full of attractive odours but it’s not good food for us.
Please help keep us out of your garden and yard by being responsible with your waste and compost bins so we don’t get ourselves into trouble in your neighbourhood.
You never know at this time of year where we will pop out.
Thank you.
From a grateful Tri-City bear resident.
Philip Warburton,
