WildSafe BC Members in Cariboo to Tag Trash Bags to Prevent Bear Incidents

WildSafe BC members in Quesnel and Williams Lake are doing their part to protect residents from bears.

With bears increasing their feeding habits in the Fall, the liklihood of an encounter rises greatly.

To help residents avoid bears, WildSafe BC members will be tagging garbage bags in a number of communities with bright yellow tags.

These tags serve to warn residents of one the most prominent bear attractants: human waste.

With many communities already noticing increases in bear activity, the tags are just one WildSafe BC is helping to prevent bear related incidents.
