Have there ever been reports of black bears in the Villages? I've read a fairly recent news article (October, 2014 - Orlando Sentinel) of bear reports in Lady Lake, Fl.
Just wondering.

Yes, usually going through dumpsters and trash bags.

Check the online newspaper. They are reporting bears seen at CR 466 and Rolling Acres.
A mother and her cub. I hope they can be safely relocated.

When I lived there there was one going through Allamanda Rec.Ctr's dumpster, the Game warden said that they come from the Ocala Forest.

Don't feed them. Don't feed them. Don't feed them.
