The Library will host a talk about black bears Tuesday evening at 6:30 pm.
Black bears have become a more common site in Wolcott and Connecticut in the past ten years, as populations of bears have risen above 400. There is some talk of holding an annual hunt to keep their numbers down.
The talk will be given by Paul Colburn, a Master Wildlife Conservationist. He will discuss the natural history of black bears in Connecticut, their habitat, diet, and behavior as well as ongoing research efforts.
