Bears in West Marin
Seen bear scat/poop in West Marin? Local wildlife photographer and conservationist extraordinaire, Sarah Killingsworth is collecting bear scat samples. Here’s Sarah’s request:
Hi everyone - there have been lots of reports of bear scat in recent days. I am part of the scat survey team for the North Bay Bear Collaborative (and a certified CA Naturalist and wildlife conservation photographer and filmmaker). We're collecting bear scat samples in Marin for DNA analysis, to identify individuals and understand bear movements and population size in the North Bay. If you find what you suspect is bear scat, I would appreciate it if you could send me a photo of the scat, and the location via email or text, so I can potentially come collect a sample. My email is sarahrun1@yahoo.com and my cell is 415-314-6977. Thanks! If you want to read more about NBBC, you can check out our website: https://beingwithbears.org Thanks so much!
