As bears exit their winter dens, Protect Our Wildlife has released its new bear report, âVermont Black Bears and How to Effectively Manage Conflict.â
The report is the product of a five-month-long project launched by an environmental sciences student at UVM and contributors include experts in microbiology and molecular genetics, ecology, and other experts with varied backgrounds.
The report touches on a number of matters, from possible reasons why there was such a dramatic increase in bear complaints reported to Vermont Fish & Wildlife in 2020, to simple things that people can do to prevent bear conflicts from happening in the first place. One easy thing, the report says, is to bring birdfeeders in for the season. Taking birdfeeders in at night isnât sufficient, since spilled seed on the ground will attract hungry bears, who possess a superior sense of smell.
