Black Bear Feasts Inside Home, Rescues Stuffed Bear On Way Out

Black Bear Feasts Inside Home, Rescues Stuffed Bear On Way OutA black bear on Tuesday walked into a New Hampshire home, ate two pears, some grapes, took a sip from a fishbowl and grabbed a stuffed bear on the way out of the house. The stuffed bear was later recovered.

Mary Beth Parkinson of Laconia, New Hampshire, told local news station WMUR Channel 9 that her sons had left the outside door to their house open. When the family returned home the garage door may have scared the bear, because when Parkinson walked inside the house the fish were still alive:

"There was one fish left in here (and) one flipping on the counter."

Thankfully, the fish were saved. And the stuffed bear was found in the back yard next to a box of Goldfish crackers. He must have been in a hurry to get the hell out of there.
