Animal Control officers, as well as residents have reported seeing black bears in yards and along roadways. The Animal Control office told the Weston Forum that they have been receiving numerous calls from residents of the bears coming close to homes, said the Weston Forum.
To prevent bears from wandering into your yard, officials suggest residents bring their bird feeders in and keep garbage cans inside. In addition, if a bear approaches you, yell and scream at the bear and wave your arms over your head to scare it away, added the Weston Forum.
