Concerned about about accidental human encounters with bears

Peggy Fudge writes:
I am concerned about the number of reported (purported?) bear sightings in our part of the state. There is the possibility of human or domestic animal injury because on an accidental encounter. Also, I can envision a person or persons (possibly fueled by ETOH) going on bear hunt, with bad consequences for all involved. What does KDFW say about these sightings? Do they have any idea of how many bears are actually roaming into more populated areas, or why? - Peggy Fudge
Thanks. Peggy Fudge. Good questions. The answers are beyond my knowledge, but most likely we will be hearing much more from Kentucky Fish & Wildlife on the subject. - EW
