Now is the time that the Bears are on the move…
Over the last several days there has been reports in the BTVPOA area that several homes and cars broken into by bear. Last night a juvenile bear was seen breaking into a homeowner’s car on Shoshone, then the bear went to a home on Sierra Parkway at 2:00 a.m. and broke into the home while the homeowners was asleep. The homeowner locked themselves into their bedroom and called the Sheriff. There have been other reports of bears trying to get into homes through windows in our area.
If you live in BTV please remember we live in the woods, keep your home and property safe, this is the time of year when bears are on the move for food. Don’t leave your screen doors or windows open if possible, this is an invitation for the bears to come in and do not leave food out or in your cars. This picture was taken this morning on Chinook Way I am sure this was a bear.
Remembers bears don’t just move around at night they can be seen during the day too.
