Why this matters in Frisco News
While this unusual incident occurred in Colorado, it's a good reminder for Frisco residents to be mindful of their surroundings, especially when living in an area with increasing urban-wildland interface. As the city continues to grow and expand, the potential for wildlife encounters also increases. Although bears are not typically found in Frisco, other wildlife such as coyotes and bobcats are known to roam the area. Residents should take precautions to secure their trash and pet food, and be aware of their surroundings when outdoors, especially at dawn and dusk when wildlife is most active. The city's proximity to natural areas and parks also means that residents should be prepared for unexpected wildlife encounters, and know what to do in case of an emergency. By being aware of their surroundings and taking necessary precautions, Frisco residents can minimize the risk of unexpected wildlife encounters.
