Black bears are known to roam Highlands so it's good to be aware of the do's and don'ts when visiting! 🐻

Heading to bear country this fall for a vacation? Staying in a vacation rental? Follow these tips if you're new to visiting bear country so you can be BearWise and enjoy your surroundings:

- Enjoy bears from a distance and never approach them.
- Feeding bears (intentionally or unintentionally) trains them to approach homes and people for more food, and you may be ticketed and fined.
- Bears may be defensive when people get too close.
- Secure your food and garbage.
- Ask the rental manager if they have bear-resistant trash containers and how to use properly
- Clean and store your BBQ grill.
- Don’t leave garbage and recycling outside of your vacation rental overnight.
- Do not leave food, coolers or garbage unattended on a picnic table or anywhere outdoors – even for a moment!
- Keep doors and windows closed.

A little effort on your part
goes a long way for bear safety.
