ODFW Warns Laurelwood Residents About Bears

(Laurelwood, OR)  --  The Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife is warning residents of Laurelwood in Washington County not feed bears.  Seven residents have reported problems with two bears near Bald Peak.  They've torn down bird feeders, gotten into trash cans,  and broken open a smoker.  The bears are a mother and a cub.  They don't appear to be frightened of alarms and other noisemakers being used to scare them off.  ODF-and-W is asking residents to bear-proof their homes so they don't unintentionally feed the bears.
