Black bears seen expanding into northeast Iowa area
The Gazette reports three to four black bears overwintered in Iowa this past season, with sightings concentrated in the northeast near Minnesota and Wisconsin. Furbearer biologist Vince Eversizer notes bears are not common in Iowa but may cross state lines as the population expands, possibly leading to a small to medium population in the state. Missouri’s growing bear population may push bears into southern Iowa in coming years.
