The Lincoln Police Department is getting many calls regarding bear encounters within town limits. Some homeowners have sent us pictures as well. 
The link below will help you stay 
safe if you encounter a bear. As well as, a reminder that “a fed bear is a dead bear.” Please, never feed, entice, try to pet or get close to a bear for any reason.
