Description
Neighborhood report: Someone from a nearby nursery told neighbors they received information that a person doing farm work near the sighting location saw a bear around 4:00 PM on April 23. I often walk along the farm road around these fields and had noticed round footprints about 15 cm across crossing the field a little while ago, so I suspected it might be a bear. This sighting hasn’t been reported on the local disaster radio or in the newspaper, but since other people also walk around here, I’m reporting it to raise awareness.
