Bear seen in Santiago

(Editor’s Note: The following article was submitted by a reader).

About a month ago, Gail and Darrell Bebeau of Santiago Twp. were disgruntled to see their bird feeders in their yard knocked down by nature or a wild animal. Last Saturday, they discovered the culprit, a hungry black bear standing tall on two legs sniffing the goodies. They snapped a few photos and asked the Patriot to spread the news about the creature they discovered on their land.

The Bebeaus live off Co. Rd. 85 in Santiago.
