Be Bear Aware

Please be advised that there have been several sightings of bears in the area recently. Warning signs have been posted near the traffic circle at the entrance to Discovery Ridge.

Our special community has us living in partnership with local wildlife. In order to protect our neighbourhood, our residents, and the wildlife, please ensure you are doing your part. If possible, put your blue and green bins out for pickup on Wednesday morning instead of Tuesday evening to help reduce bear attractants until the bears go into hibernation.

For more information on how to live with and enjoy Calgary’s wildlife, see:
