• Bear spotted several times in Green Valley, Sahuarita (kvoa.com) — A bear has been spotted twice in Green Valley since Sunday and again Tuesday in nearby Sahuarita neighborhoods, but wildlife officials say it currently poses no threat. Arizona Game and Fish is monitoring its movements and reminding residents to secure outdoor food and water so the bear keeps moving through rather than lingering near homes.
