Savage Lake dumpster to get fencing
The Western News | Hagadone News Network | UPDATED 14 years, 10 months AGO
A dumpster site
at Savage Lake has been selected for fencing to help protect
bears.
The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Services’ Wayne
Kasworm said about $9,500 was raised through a variety of
organizations and agencies.
“Sites fenced thus far include Yaak, Fourth of
July, Trego and Glen Lake,” Kasworm said. “We have suggested an
alternative site for the Cliffside dumpster site about 20 miles
south of Libby that has had chronic bear conflicts.”
Fundraising efforts will continue to provide
fencing at additional sites.
