Multiple times a week, Savita Jaswal reads about black bear sightings in her neighbourhood Facebook group in Prince George, B.C. "Just want to let everyone know, we have two bear cubs in our tree," reads one from earlier this month. Crews in Prince George removed four black bear cubs from a tree in the College Heights neighbourhood. Bakker suggested the city of Prince George could roll out bear-resistant garbage bins similar to those being used in Port Coquitlam. The Northern Bear Awareness Society warns that when a bear finds food, it can return to that spot for years afterwards.
