Pickens County, Ga. – – The tensions are high in the curved tree community after a black bear with two young boys was shot near the house of a resident last week. The incident, which was reported on Friday morning, triggered concern and frustration with neighbors and wildlife representatives.

In an alarm for public security, which was sent to curved tree residents, the officials confirmed the death of the mother bear and said that their body, which was found in the general area of ​​the Oglethorpe Mountain Road between the Oglethorpe Mountain Trail and Oglethorpe Mountain Court became. After the warning message, the DNR gave the fact that the best hope for the orphaned Cubs was to give them time to be taken over by another female bear in the region – a natural process that is considered more effective than human intervention, which often leads to failure.

Since the shootout, the cubs have been seen in the neighborhood alone without looking for their mother. The residents were asked to report sightings or updates of the Cub state by contacting community officers by e -mail or telephone.

The DNR confirmed Fox 5 Atlanta on Saturday that a black bear was shot in Pickens County, but declined to provide further details due to an ongoing examination.

Violations of the law can lead to a high and difficult nature, with fines of up to $ 5,000 and up to 12 months restriction.

Bent Tree Community Leaders have explained that they work with the law enforcement authorities to determine whether the shootout violates the regulations of the community or the state protection of the wildlife.

According to the DNR, black bears are generally not aggressive and in Georgia there have never been fatal bear attacks. The residents are reminded that bears are often drawn from food sources such as bird feeders, outdoor pet food or unsecured garbage and that they should be removed in order to prevent unwanted bear encounters. In addition, electrical fences can be installed to hold hiking bears. While the relocation is rarely effective, civil servants can be put to the end of the way that is a threat to human security.
