The Lambton OPP have received reports of another black bear siting in the community.
OPP officials say on June 2, at approximately 1 p.m. a resident of Plympton- Wyoming observed a black bear to be located within an agricultural field in the area of Michigan Line and Hillsboro Road.
Police officials say the resident observed the bear exit the field and enter an area bush lot. Neighbouring residents and police kept observation on the bush lot in order to monitor the bears behaviour and direction of travel.
After some time, the bear was not seen nor did it create a nuisance or display aggressive behaviour.
The previous black bear sighting is approximately 20 kilometers from today’s sighting location.
It appears as though the black bear is travelling in a southerly direction.
Again, information on how to react to indifferent black bear behaviour can be accessed online at www.ontario.ca/page/prevent-bear-encounters-bear-wise.
