A DEEP guy told me the reason we're seeing more and more bears in CT is because NY and MA have bear hunting season and hunting pressure drives them into Connecticut. Open and shut.
He added that DEEP has agitated for a bear hunting season with the legislature for years now. This past session they lost by only a couple votes.

I agree completely! Hopefully the next time it’s up for vote it’ll pass. Don’t get me wrong, they’re awesome creatures. But they can be dangerous and certainly be a nuisance.
It sucks to hit a deer in a car, but hitting a bear is even worse! It’s getting too common. (And don’t get me started about MV vs Moose!).
