Bear Sightings

Nov 26, 2019 | News | 6 comments

We have had several reports recently about bears being seen near SCOI cottages. The bears appear to be slowly moving north from Southampton and are looking for shelter for the winter.  If you visit your cottage over the winter, please be alert for bears hibernating under decks and cottage structures.
