Every week, we ask area residents a question. The question may be serious, or it may be light-hearted. We will print the answers we receive here.
For this week’s question we asked:
How do you feel about the knowledge that has recently come out about bears in our area? Are you concerned, excited, or have some other feeling?
I’ve known that Arkansas has had bears for several years so I figured Missouri had them. – Claude Coberly
I think it’s great. – Joe Welch
It’s no big deal to me one way or the other. – Mike Redfearn
I’m ready for bear season. – James Barnett
People need to be knowledgeable about wild animals around them. If they don’t know about them, they can get hurt. – Kathee Kutzner
Next week’s question is: Who in your family has served in the United States Armed Forces? What branch were they in and where did they serve? E-mail answers to whitney@douglascountyherald.com or call 417-683-4181.
