Massive bear breaks into Colorado home, devours pork chops: video
2023-06-19
[NYPOST] A bear that let itself into a Colorado home on Wednesday was looking for more than just porridge.

The daring bear grabbed a quick meal before it was caught on video in Steamboat Springs trying to escape from a second-floor window after it accidentally locked itself in the home’s master bedroom.

Neighbor Heidi Hannah caught the intruder on video and called the police for help when she realized the home’s residents were not there.

The large bear made several attempts to drop to the ground, but it was apparently too high up.

It swung itself back into the bedroom, where an officer who responded to the call had opened the door.

The beast went back downstairs, slipped through the first-floor window it originally entered through, then disappeared into the woods.

The homeowner, Ryan MacFarlane, was at work when he learned the bear was in his home, he told Fox31 news.

#4  I was staying with a friend in New England a few years ago in early fall, and we woke up to a trash dumpster area that was pretty trashed (no pun intended), 99.9% from a bear trying to get to the dumpsters which were in a locked, enclosed area. That bear gave it his best shot.

#3  Here in NH we had a bear come into the garage through a window, not second floor, open the garbage bin, take out a bag of garbage, tear open the OTHER window screen, took the bag outside and had a picnic. We've kept the two torn screens for 4 years to show everyone. Oh yeah it came in over my work bench without disturbing a single tool or the project I was working on. Moved a trail camera to see if he came back and the next day there he was posing.

Least he didn't get into the kitchen.

#2  I take it the local DA is good with catch and release anyway. Just tell the judge you identify as a brown bear.
