A runner had an encounter with a bear this morning (Saturday, June 26) where the bear followed him for a distance instead of immediately running away which most bears would do.
Please use extreme caution on our trails.
Please check out the info below about bear encounters before venturing out on our trails.
We have been in contact with the Bear Wise folks at the MNR.
Stop: Don’t approach-create distance
Do not run or climb a tree
If bear follows-be aggresive
Stay together
Prepare to use bear spray
Keep dogs on a leash
