Black bears apparently know when it's trash day in particular neighborhoods, so this 400-pounder decided to stroll down from the mountains and see what tasty treats could be found.
In the incredibly unlikely event that this happened in my neighborhood, I'd run inside my home and call the police. And I wouldn't leave until wildlife officials or law enforcement had secured the beast.
But these people see a wild bear roaming about unrestrained and think, "It's selfie time!"
Perhaps Californians are made of sterner stuff.
Anyway, wildlife officials tranquilized and relocated the bear from the Monrovia neighborhood. Then, the next day, a different black bear went for a jaunt through the same neighborhood!
