First New Jersey Black Bear Sighting
We moved into our first home in June. I finally saw my first New Jersey black bear. Yesterday evening (before dark) I was walking in the tiny lot of woods adjacent to our backyard gathering some firewood (and picking up some old beer bottles). 25 yards ahead I saw a small black bear walking away from me. I got the heck out of there and retreated in the opposite direction in case "mom" was around.
This bear was either a baby or a small adult. Hard (almost impossible) to determine.

They are available but not through the Division. Campbell is holding the printing up.
Go to www.tnusanj.com to print them out. Sorry about the quality, it's the best I could get.
