Letter to the editor: Here’s an idea about how to deal with aggressive wildlife

Robert Walton
Chelmsford, Massachusetts

This letter is in regards to the story about aggressive mountain lions near Heeney and the presence of bears in the area.

Knowing nothing about the subject, but offering a suggestion. Why not carry a three-minute railroad fusee? A brightly burning flare will scare off any wild animal, perhaps? Just a nonfatal-to-animals suggestion. As a last resort, of course. And happy to be proven wrong.
