Recent reports of a bear in Lambton County have prompted authorities to remind the public about wildlife encounters.
Not every bear sighting is an emergency situation. If a bear poses an immediate threat to personal safety and exhibits threatening or aggressive behaviour police and the Ministry of Natural Resources should be notified.
For non-emergency cases when the animal is being more of a nuisance, report your problem through the TOLL FREE Bear Wise reporting line. This line operates 24 hours a day, seven days a week until the end of November 30.
