HANOVER, N.H. (AP) - Wildlife officials in New Hampshire say a family of four bears needs to be killed after two of the bears entered a resident’s home.
A Hanover resident says the bear family was last seen messing with a bird feeder in a neighbor’s backyard, and hopes that they could be relocated. A Fish and Game spokesperson told WMUR-TV (https://bit.ly/2rXJ8fE ) that relocation isn’t an option because they’ll just repeat their behavior somewhere else.
After waking up from hibernation in March, officials say two of the bears entered a home. The bears are not aggressive, but are also unafraid of humans.
Fish and Game officials say the bears, when captured, will be tranquilized then shot.
