“He isn’t in rapid hazard and isn’t a risk, however we have to find him as quickly as potential. We’re asking anybody within the South Shore Lake Tahoe Space—particularly the areas of Black Bart, Heavenly Valley and Sierra Tract— to be looking out. It can be crucial that non-residents keep out of the world as he’s petrified of people and phone will solely make him cover or run,” Lake Tahoe Wildlife Heart stated.
He’s seemingly hiding or in a tree. A tip line, at 530-577-2273, was arrange in an effort to find him.
