City reminding people the map is just for reporting sightings, not emergencies
It's spring in northern Ontario. That means a hint of warm weather, buds on the trees...and surprise encounters with black bears.
Love them or hate them, bears are a part of the Sudbury landscape.
And to help you keep track of the furry visitors in your neighbourhood, the city has updated its Report-a-Bear website.
Most recent bear sightings are coloured, with week-old views shaded in grey.
CBC Sudbury is looking for your photos and videos too. Post on our page or send us a message about your encounters this year.
This picture was tweeted to us from Joseph Roy in Britt, Ont.
And Karen Upper in Sudbury tweeted this cute bear picture:
Sudbury resident Claude Francis had a visitor too.
