Black bear reported in Brewster. Night recon more likely.


A black bear was reported on Breakwater Road tonight at 10, but I feel this is more likely what was seen, given the information from the state.

At present (2003), bears are found almost everywhere west of the Connecticut River, at a density of about 1 bear per square mile of forest and a likely population of 2000 animals. Bears are moderately common in central Massachusetts (between the Connecticut River and the eastern boundary of Worcester County) but are only occasionally found in the northeastern counties. Black bears are absent from southeastern Massachusetts.
