Recent wildfires in the Myrtle Beach area burned thousands of acres along with numerous homes and property, but there is another consequence homeowners in the area should be aware of: Black bears, along with other animals, were displaced and will begin roaming in search of desirable food sources.
A homeowner’s guide to living with bears has been published by DNR, offering handy tips for peacefully co-existing with black bears. Authored by Ruth, “A Homeowner’s Guide: Living with Bears” offers common-sense advice to homeowners that will help them avoid unpleasant encounters with the black bear. The bear brochure also details some interesting natural history information on this often-feared and frequently misunderstood wildlife species.
To obtain a copy of the homeowner’s guide to living with bears brochure, visit the DNR offices in Clemson, Georgetown or Florence, or call the Columbia DNR office at (803) 734-3886.
