We showed you here on FOX10 News videos of bears wandering around in Saraland, looking for the basic necessities to survive. If you are thinking of helping them through leaving food out for them, wildlife experts are asking you to think twice. Bear researcher Hannah Leeper said that bears getting human food can turn into a death sentence for them. “There’s a common adage out there that a fed bear is a dead bear and what that means is once a bear is fed from a human or has access to human provided foods, that bear will often have to be euthanized or put down because it has learned that humans are a food source. So, we really want to avoid that,” Leeper said.Sunny and dry conditions for Saturday1 arrested following shooting on Pleasant Valley RoadNOAA issues permit to remove 7 dolphins from Gulf World Marine Park
