Concerning bear activity in Grande Cache

Sep 27, 2018 | 5:37 AM

Grande Cache Emergency Services is warning residents of concerning bear activity.

The animals are entering the town at night and going through garbage cans prompting Fish and Wildlife officers to investigate.

An area around Condo Row has been taped off and the public is asked to stay away until officials can trap the bears.

Last week, quad trails behind 97 Avenue and Grande Avenue and Griffith Trail from Firemans Pit Road to Hoppe Avenue were closed off to the public due to bear activity.

Residents are also being warned if they are caught in that taped off area, they could face charges under the Wildlife Act.

You are asked to call the Grande Cache District Office at 780-827-3356.
