Colorado warns residents as bears raid porch pumpkins
Original: Colorado’s bears are feasting on porch pumpkins this fall, CPW warns
Colorado Parks and Wildlife is warning residents that black bears are eating decorative pumpkins left on porches across the state this fall. Officials are urging people to bring pumpkins and other attractants indoors, as bears preparing for hibernation are actively seeking calorie-rich food and repeated encounters can lead to conflicts or bears being euthanized.
Why now: Bears are becoming bolder around homes as they bulk up before hibernation, prompting an official seasonal warning.
