Clearwater resident Louise Payne checks out some brochures brought by Wildsafe BC community coordinator Mandy Ross during a display at Wells Gray Infocentre on Saturday, Oct. 15.
With increased reports of bears within the community, Ross also had a display at Clearwater Farmers Market the previous weekend plus has given presentations in local schools.
Not putting garbage out until the morning it is going to be picked up is a simple way to help reduce bear problems, she says.
