From the Environmental Commission
It is Spring and time for New Jersey bears to end their long Winter fast and to begin foraging for food wherever they can find it. Those of us who have had their garbage cans overturned, their bird feeders thrown to the ground or, in any other way been made aware of their presence know that residents must be vigilant to protect their property and their safety. The Environmental Commission would like to refer all residents to the Franklin Lakes webpage, and specifically,
Bear Safety Tips and
Living With Black Bears to protect themselves and their property and to refresh their knowledge of living responsibly and safely with these beautiful, if somewhat annoying creatures.
