CAMDEN — The Center for Wildlife Studies "Wild Maine" Series, in partnership with the Camden Public Library, continues with a presentation by bear biologist Randy Cross all about American Black Bear monitoring in Maine. This event will take place Tuesday, March 12, at 6:30 p.m., in the Picker Room and via Zoom. Randy Cross will present an overview of Maine’s long term bear monitoring program with the Maine Fish & Wildlife Department.
Randy Cross worked as the field crew leader on Maine's black bear monitoring project for 38 years, with two field seasons each year, including spring trapping and winter den visits. Cross is now retired but still works with the field crews on contract basis. He will soon be starting his 42nd trapping season and, "42 years of counting bears," says Cross, in a library news release. "I can’t wait!"
This is a hybrid event and will take place in person in the Picker Room at Camden Public Library as well as on Zoom.
