Fall means feeding frenzy for black bears

LAKE TAHOE, Calif./Nev. – Autumn is here, and black bears are entering a temporary physiological state known as “hyperphagia.” During hyperphagia, also known as the fall feeding frenzy, bears consume as much as they can to bring their fat stores to a level where they can survive the quickly approaching winter months.

Now is the time to secure food, garbage, and recycling - all this is needed to keep Tahoe bears wild!

In the fall, an adult bear can consume 20,000 to 24,000 calories a day and can gain multiple pounds per day.

"Bear Aware" more than a snappy slogan - it shows how human behavior must change at Lake Tahoe

SOUTH LAKE TAHOE, Calif. - The black bears who call Lake Tahoe home need the humans that live and visit there to know proper bear behavior. And it isn't the behavior of the bears, but of the humans, that will keep the bears healthy and alive.

Bears have started to emerge from their winter lodging, and they need humans to properly secure their food and property to ensure their survival. The sooner in a bear's life we do this, the better the chance they have to safely coexist with humans.
