Kind of odd that there are deer but no bears. All the terrain in the islands is flat ag land so it wouldn't be that good for denning. The extreme northern end of the town of Alburgh is landlocked all wooded and going into Canada where there must be bears. My town is a true island completely surrounded by water. Access via a draw bridge on the south side and a fixed bridge going into Alburgh on the north. It is fun to go around the Island by boat but since it is about 10 miles long it takes a while.
