A driver in Maine hit and killed this 250-pound black bear
A driver in Wells, Maine, hit a 250-pound-plus black bear over the weekend, and police are using the incident — and the gory photos of the collision’s aftermath — as an opportunity to remind residents about the best practices for maintaining bird feeders and outside trash this time of year.
The bear was killed instantly in the Saturday night collision, Wells police said in a statement posted on Facebook. No one in the vehicle was injured.
“This is a good reminder to bring in your bird feeders and secure your trash,” police wrote. “The bears are out and about right now and they are looking for food.”
