Posted: Mar 09, 2023 4:39 AM EST | Last Updated: March 9The Department of Fisheries, Forestry and Agriculture has issued its first polar bear warning of the winter, telling residents of Labrador's south coast and Newfoundland's Northern Peninsula to stay away if they see one of the beautiful but dangerous animals.
One of those bears was spotted in St. Carols, a community with around 20 houses just north of St. Anthony. "I wasn't scared of him, and I said hey, then he turned around," Rose told CBC News. The animal ran away from her house after hearing her. "He never took his time. He was frightened I think." The animal came close to the front door of Sybil Rose's house. After it got scared from hearing her voice, the bear started walking away.She says it's not uncommon to see polar bears floating on ice around the community during spring, but she was surprised to see one this early.
