Tahoe bears need YOUR help
1. Drive slow, bears spontaneously cross streets and highway without warning
2. Lock up trash so bears forage their native food that is in abundance in the basin
3. Give em space: If you see a bear give them the right-of-way. If you see bears fishing in the creek or foraging in the forest or meadow... back away, give them space, (do not move in for a photo).
Recognize we have a People Problem not a Bear problem

Bears Live Here...for centuries...
10,000 years ago humans moved in and co-existed with the Bears, not hunting them or building homes where they lived.
200 years ago, colonists moved in and began pushing wildlife out
Now Bears (and other wildlife) still here, struggle to survive and co-exist with us.
