Bear Alert from the NJDEP

Release Date: October 15, 2012
"Black bears are preparing to den up for the winter season and need to consume large amounts of food in the fall," said David Chanda, Director of the DEP's Division of Fish and Wildlife. "If you live in areas frequented by bears, try to ensure they will not find food near your homes, as bears will naturally take advantage of easy meals by searching through unsecured garbage cans and dumpsters, or raiding bird feeders."
