“My son just called me. He’s home alone and says there’s a bear inside the house.” A homeowner called 911 after a bear and a cub entered his home on Tuesday.
Bahre has lived in Canton her whole life and says a bear with her three cubs came to her home last week, breaking into a garage freezer and stealing a Carvel cake.
“I saw her walking out that way with the box in her mouth and two of the cubs behind her and one of the other cubs climbed out the tree,” she said.“We probably see them four out of seven days a week,” she said. DEEP says so far this year, home entries by bears across Connecticut have nearly doubled compared to the same time frame last year. The agency says homeowners should take steps to remove trash cans and bird feeders outside which can attract bears looking for food.
“The more we can think in doing our part to try and prevent them from learning bad behaviors in the first place, the more likely we can keep the bears safe and ourselves safe,” DEEP Biologist Jenny Dickson said.“I will be closing my garage door whenever I’m home rather than … I’ve always left it open, but I’m not going to leave it open anymore,” she said.
