Tourne County Park in New Jersey has been closed after a parkgoer's encounter with an aggressive black bear. NickJCaloway reports.
A parkgoer's encounter with a black bear forced officials to close Tourne County Park in Boonton this week.
According to Kovacevic, part of the blame is on parkgoers who all too often let their dogs run off leash. "I really sympathize with the bears because people constantly don't put their dogs on leashes, and that's the cause of it," said Hall. "There is wildlife in the park, particularly bears. We are in bear country," said Kovacevic."Never feed a bear, never approach a bear. Definitely keeping dogs on leash would go a long way to prevent future incidents."
