HEADS UP
Bear sightings
More bears than usual have been spotted this season at campgrounds in the Mt. Baker-Snoqualmie National Forest.
The U.S. Forest Service is reminding visitors to keep food secure and to not feed the animals, even if they appear tame. Bears who are fed and become too comfortable around humans may need to be euthanized.
If you do encounter a bear: Never run, remain calm, talk to it softly and calmly so it knows you’re human, face the bear as you back away slowly, watch for changes in behavior such as flattened ears and vocalizations, make yourself big by holding arms above your head if it continues to approach. Carry and know how to properly use bear spray.
To report a non-emergency bear problem, call the Department of Fish and Wildlife at 425-775-1311, 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday through Friday. If the offices are closed, call law enforcement.
