The following is an excerpt from a post in The Blue Line info@boulderblueline.org by district wildlife manager, Kristin Cannon:
“I truly feel we can prevent that bear from coming into town in the first place if we can convince it that people and the city have nothing, no garbage, to offer.”
Since this issue is widespread, it is going to take a solution that is both reasonable and practical. I think no one can determine what solution is best other than the residents this issue affects. I encourage everyone to not only share feedback with me in the upcoming months but to also become involved in the city’s efforts by participating in the creation of the Urban Wildlife Management Plan. Information on the plan can be found at www.boulderwildlifeplan.net. We can and should generate a remedy for the problem of unsecured garbage, and if we do we take a crucial step toward making Boulder a more bear-friendly city.”
