Bear with it eh


It’s getting to be a common sight in Timmins. Police officers with shotguns are out every day and evening confronting the black bear problem in Timmins. This bear was prowling around a back porch on Lakeshore Drive this evening. As I write this, the cops are trying to scare the bear back into the bush… the problem is, the bush is about half a mile away and there are kids all around watching the action. So far in Timmins this summer, there have been more than 400 nuisance bear calls.
