Silver City, NM, May 15, 2025 — Gila National Forest has received numerous reports of a human-habituated bear frequenting the Jordan Hot Springs area of the Gila Wilderness. The bear has charged at hikers, harassed campers at a campsite, destroyed a tent, and entered the hot spring while visitors were soaking in it.
New Mexico Department of Game and Fish is advising visitors to avoid the area until the department has had an opportunity to investigate and respond appropriately. Signs will be posted at local trailheads while this hazard exists. Follow our Facebook page at Facebook - Gila National Forest for updates.
