Locals were alerted to a bear break in in a home in the Glenridge subdivision. The incident occurred sometime within the last few days, maybe last Wednesday or Thursday. It was discovered Friday morning. Quite a bit of damage was reported, including the hood over the stove had been ripped off the wall! The refrigerator, of course was trashed, and will be replaced.
So, is it time for an electric fence on your house? Maybe it should be included in any protection plan in and around Tahoma.
Snow will accumulate in large amounts this week, perhaps sending the bruins into hibernation. Naturalists seem to think local black bears have given up on hibernation due to the availability of regular meals "in our homes"!
Please report any sightings to the El Dorado or Placer County Sheriff's dept. They respond if bears are breaking in. They will not harm the bears unless they pose a threat to residents.
White outs are also predicted for this week, along with deep snow and wind driven accumulations. Be prepared.
