well this is something new. he's been wandering all over the place!
boston herald and cape cod times:
Stash the trash! Take down the bird feeders!
With a bear on the loose on Cape Cod — where shark sightings and beached whales are more common — that’s the advice the wildlife cops are issuing to homeowners.
“Feeders are like candy for bears,” said Reginald Zimmerman, assistant press secretary for the Office of Energy and Environmental Affairs, which oversees the state’s Environmental Police and has been involved in locating the bear since residential sightings have poured in over Memorial Day weekend. He is also advising people to keep a healthy distance.
officials say he probably swam across the Cape Cod Canal.
Bear sightings are common in western Massachusetts, but eastern reports are increasing. Residents of Wareham and Plymouth reported bear sightings in recent weeks.
