MNR receives report of black bear in Huron The Ministry of Natural Resources is asking residents of Huron County to be aware that a report of a black bear in the area has been received. They advise people to take steps to avoid a possible encounter. A sighting of a single bear in an agricultural field occurred in early November in the Holmesville- Clinton area. At this time of year, bears will be seeking denning sites for the winter. They will still be active during warm spells, but will begin hibernation when cold weather arrives. It is unusual, but not unheard of, for a black bear to be this far south. Black bears were native to Huron County, but disappeared as the area was settled. Healthy populations of black bear exist in the Bruce Peninsula and to the east of Georgian Bay. Black bears are a shy species that prefer to avoid humans. Most encounters occur as a result of an animal being attracted to food sources such as poorly-stored garbage, landfill sites and agricultural crops. The public is encouraged to learn more about black bears and how to co-exist with the species through the ministry's Bear Wise Program. Anyone wishing to report a black bear sighting can call the Bear Wise line toll-free at 1-866-514-2327 (BEAR) at any time. In the event there are concerns about public safety, call 911 or the local police. OPP have possible suspects regarding a bold break-in at a downtown building in Brussels. According to Sr. Const. Don Shropshall, witnesses saw some people enter the vacant building on Turnberry Street in mid-afternoon of Nov. 13. They believed that they were going to be working inside. Later it was discovered that the front door had been smashed and a considerable amount of damage was done. Police 'were called in to investigate at 8:45 p.m. In addition to the front door, several windows at the back of the building at been smashed. There was damage done to the interior walls and a number of broken beer bottles were found on the floor. The owner estimates the damage at $5,000, Shropshall said. Anyone with any information that might help police is asked to call the Wingham OPP office or Crimestoppers at 1-800-222-8477. BUY? SELL?
