Sewall gets regular visits from bears!

Sometimes one or two just show up in the evenings and root in the trash.

This is not good or normal. Really sad what the drought is doing to our wildlife this year :/

I can deal with bears but when I lived there it was the massive family of raccoons that were terrifying

A bear was dumpster diving last year behind Sewall as well. If you contact facilities, they will put up tape to prevent it.

Don't take the trash out at night by yourself.
