Leland gets its own Black Bear

September 10, 2023/in Featured, Leelanau, leland, news, outdoors

We shared a photo of black bear between Northport & Omena last week.

The other night, Dan Lisuk looked out his window in Leland and saw an unexpected Peeping Tom! He says he shooed it away, but it only went ten feet turned around and laughed.

Any bear experts have thoughts on this apparent uptick in ursine activity?
