A black bear was spotted on Saturday morning about one mile from downtown Hudson. There is video showing the bear on Hudson Aurora Road around 11:30 am. The City of Hudson also confirmed a sighting at Hudson Springs Park, in a Facebook post, adding that it’s common for young black bears to travel great distances in search of a new home, sometimes traveling through Hudson and without causing a problem.

The city also shared tips on how to bear-proof your yard:


Remove bird feeders and other wildlife feed

Store garbage in your garage or in a secure container

Keep pet food inside, especially at night

Clean out your grill’s grease traps after each use and store it in your garage or shed

Be AWARE. Here’s what to do if you encounter a bear:

Act calm and do not run.

Warn the bear that you are near; talk in a firm, calm voice.

Allow space between you and the bear. Step aside and back slowly away. Do not make the bear feel trapped or threatened.

Raise your hands above your head to appear larger if the bear approaches. Clap your hands or shout to scare the bear away.

Exit the area.
