“You may notice an increase in furry mammals sighted at our beaches this month. Please rest assured there is absolutely no danger to the public: They are gentle beings just looking to congregate in the good weather, enjoy some drinks or snacks, and perhaps even dance a little. We expect a decline in numbers following Bear Week in mid July, with a second peak during Spooky Bear in October prior to hibernation.”
