In the area around B\u0103ile Tu\u0219nad, bears are found in large numbers. The town is located at the intersection of the Ciuc and Harghita mountain ranges, making it a crossing point for bears when they move from one range to another. This increases the likelihood of human-bear encounters. The residents have learned to coexist with the wild animals. There are approximately 400 electric fences installed throughout the town to protect property from potential bear attacks, and a bear-proof waste container has also been created at the city level. If it proves effective during testing, all waste containers in the city will be replaced, eliminating the bears\u2019 food source from garbage cans.<\/p>\n
Some advice for those visiting our town:
\n\u2022 Bears generally avoid humans, so observe them from a safe distance.
\n\u2022 It\u2019s possible to see bears during the day, but they are more active in spring and summer, and from dusk to dawn. It\u2019s best to walk in the forest during the day and make some noise to give the bear the opportunity to avoid you.
\n\u2022 Don\u2019t attempt to feed the bears if you see them.
\n\u2022 If you see a bear while driving, don\u2019t follow it or get out of your car.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
