NM Game and Fish urges people to be ‘bear aware’ during drought
By Hannah Grover | June 23, 2022
Drought doesn’t only impact the availability of food and water for people and, as dry conditions continue to grip the state even amid the start of monsoon season, the New Mexico Department of Game and Fish has urged residents to be “bear aware.” Bear-human encounters tend to increase in drought times as wildlife moves into suburbs or even cities in search of resources. In a press release issued earlier this month, Rick Winslow, a bear and cougar biologist with New Mexico Department of Game and Fish, said that droughts have historically led to more conflicts with bears “not only at camping and picnic sites, but also in more populated areas.” Nick Forman is the carnivore and small mammal program manager for the department.
