!!! seems it only displays well the 2nd time? ugh.

Ralph-and-bear-in-tree-fixedFelicia Ortner, a Connecticut Master Wildlife Conservationist and a bear enthusiast, will discuss “The Bear Reality”.  Her talk will provide education about bears and help dispel misunderstandings.  Ortner, who has been studying bears for over 25 years, will present strategies for coexistence with Bears. Black bears are rarely aggressive, but it is important to “Be Bear Aware” and know how to prevent problems and unpleasant encounters.

There have been a few bear “sightings” in Lyme lately, one confirmed sighting 2 years ago.  Although there is no evidence at this time of resident bears in Lyme, the number of bears in CT has been steadily increasing.
