FREEHOLD TOWNSHIP — The Township Committee is protesting the state's relocation of a wayward black bear to Turkey Swamp Park.
Mayor David Salkin said Wednesday that moving the bear here June 5 "could have been a disaster waiting to happen. I think it was pretty irresponsible throwing it there without consulting us. It's not a vast wilderness. It's a park surrounded by residential areas."
