Bear struck by car, killed on I-890
By DAYELIN ROMAN, Staff writer
Published 08:00 p.m., Saturday, December 3, 2011

ROTTERDAM — A large animal hit and killed by a driver on Interstate 890 on Saturday night turned out to be a bear walking on the highway, police said.

Police got a call around 6 p.m. Saturday after a car heading west hit an animal near West Campbell Road.

The animal was found to be a black bear walking in traffic on the highway, police said, near the Schenectady County Bike Trail. Police said the driver was not injured.

I had one trapesing on my land in Southern Saratoga County the past month or so. Maybe it is the same one.

"While Foreign Terrorists were plotting to murder and maim using homemade bombs in Boston, Democrap officials in Washington DC, Albany and here were busy watching ME and other law abiding American Citizens who are gun owners and taxpayers, in an effort to blame the nation's lack of security on US so that they could have a political scapegoat."

We need to build an animal crossing bridge or tunnel along I-890 to ensure that this kind of tragedy will never happen again.

And if those animals don't use the tunnel/bridge, they will be arrested and ticketed....he's reached a new level of stupidity.
Pray tell what schools did these animals graduate from that they would know to use the Ronnie crossings.
What a certified dumbass!!!!

It would be extremely appropriate to install "turtle tunnels" at intervals along our major roadways. We must ensure that man-made structures do not jeopardize the life and safety of our non-human animal friends who share this wonderful planet with us.

Oh heck ya - there's SO many turtles in upstate NY that this is 100% necessary. Just like the outer banks of NC, where they're served on the daily road kill menu.

The Republican/Tea-Partiers/NNTPers are enemies of the environment. If it were up to them our rivers would be filled with raw sewage and chemical run off -- animals would be killed and their mounted from street lights like trophies of war .... they have no respect or concern for God's creation.
