Bear Sightings in Orangetown

Police ask residents to keep kids and pets inside—and garbage too.

A bear has been sighted a couple of times—Secor Boulevard yesterday in Pearl River—and the last one was 5:51PM near Convent Road in Orangeburg.


The police department also offered this resource for people wanting to learn more about living in places where there are bears: http://www.dec.ny.gov/animals/6995.html
