    Another bear watch

    I hope this sow has enough sense to by pass Amherst...for the sake of her cubs!

    There are some sows on the Amherst town board who some wish had bypassed Amherst, believe me! And as an Amherst resident I hope the bear and her cubs avoid our town. Few things in nature as dangerous as a momma bear which feels it has to defend her cubs.

    2018 has seen something like 3 times the number of black bears euthanized by DEC compared to 2017. So much for the notion that only Amherst police shoot bears. Interestingly, DEC is largely abandoning its bear relocation effort because it has proven ineffective in preventing bears from returning to their previous locales.
