Kellogg Environmental Center in Derby to host virtual presentation on black bears



 

DERBY - The Kellogg Environmental Center will host an online presentation, “Black Bears in Connecticut,” by DEEP Wildlife Biologist Kyle Testerman at 6 p.m. April 26.  

Registration is required.

As black bears continue to expand their range across the state, more and more Connecticut residents are crossing paths with these large mammals in their own backyards.  

This presentation will educate all Connecticut residents on how to coexist with bears and reduce conflicts.   The presentation is suitable for all audiences.  

Topics will include the natural history of black bears in Connecticut and how Wildlife Biologists study and manage the bear population.
