The Wyoming Game & Fish Department is warning of increased bear activity in several neighboring communities.
Storing food items and garbage properly in secure locations is a good first step while also feeding pets indoors and storing horse grain in barns or sheds.
it is very important that people contact G&F immediately if they think a bear has been in the area and accessed food.
Waiting too long after sightings or proof of their activity reduces the likelihood of the bears being successfully relocated instead of being euthanized.
