Op-Ed
It’s time to ban the intentional feeding of bears in Granby
|
I am writing in support of any ordinance that would allow the town to regulate the feeding of wildlife on private property. The town of Granby, as well as surrounding towns, continues to struggle with wildlife being habituated through the bear-feeding practices of private homeowners.
Op-Ed
