Remember: Our local black bears do not truly hibernate. Instead, they go into a lighter state of sleep known as “torpor,” where they will periodically wake up — and even forage for food. It’s important that we keep our garbage secure from bears and other wildlife ALL year long, please. ❤🐾
Teamwork Saves The Day
