I'd be stoked asf
He's thinking about starting his own food channel with the neighborhood children
Cute Bear . I Hope No One Tries To Hurt Him . Mankind is Destroying Animal Habitat and They Are Limited in Living in The Wild Anymore .
Progress is Destroying This Earth . Stay Blessed Bear . Bye
They're working with DEP to get rid of the Bear? What are they doing? Negotiating with it?
Winnie the pooh
I know the bear is of concern, but it seems very quiescent now, as hibernation time is upon it. Probably not too much to worry about till spring, & then just give it a wide berth & it'll go its way. It does look SO peaceful & at ease!
Why have a dog when you can have a bear taking care of your home. Let him stay.
Yall leave Yogi alone.
Squatters have rights
Lucky
Leave him where he is. Don't interrupt his hibernation cycle.
What an old b itch- shes lucky that Bear chose her home. Miserable old cow.
Where does a bear sleep? Wherever the heck he wants!
I love him!!!! I would’ve let him stay. Such a good boy.
Let the bear stay
Agree with everyone below. Black bears are usually very shy and timid. This guy is just chill & funny.
THESE PEOPLE NEED TO MOVE OUT OF THEIR HOUSES!
Just leave the poor bear alone. He's living in that hole because there is no where else. When you cut down all the trees where do you expect the bears to go.
Your kids are more dangerous than the bear !
That owner should live and let live the bear is not hurting her he owns that trees
Ha ! Live him alone !
Sasquatch does the same high up in the trees
Hes chillin!
Bear lives matter!
Leave him alone!
I love him! He can come live in our trees
Leave him alone !
As long as that bear is not bothering anybody I would suggest you not bother the bear leave the bear alone and let him hibernate in his tree that he picked unless he becomes dangerous leave him alone. Just be aware of your surroundings and keep an eye on your children it's common sense and it's easy there's no reason to disrupt this bear unless he is bothering people
Dangerous situation. That bear is going to be very hungry when he wakes up from hibernation, making it bad for neighborhood pets and people alike. It's not cute, or funny, or sweet. It's a wild animal in a residential neighborhood. The bear is in just as much danger as the residents in the neighborhood.
Can they all just bear with it?..
Leave him alone. He's not bothering anyone. People are so rude.
Leave him alone.
That's is so cool,
The 🐻 is living a good 👍 life.
Awww poor thing he looks sad and probably hungry ! They have nowhere to go with so many homes , no food sources except for trash ! No family Hopefully they can relocate him where there are more bears more creeks for fishing ! Further up north ! Thank you for this story ! 🙏🏾♥️
Bear TV. 😂😂🤣🤣😂
Thats the bear's tree
He will make a nice rug.
That is so cute!!
How cute🥰 but it's a wild animal that after hybernation will be hungry and small kids and pets might be in danger.
His way people they don't understand that that area before all those houses animals that was their home and stopping grounds I don't care if you have little kids there's so many f**** little kids that running around bad and a lot of white kids are horrible children anyways so let the bear just live it's beautiful day and nights in that beautiful tree I just it's going to copy a better neighbor than any other ones like women over there were pretty sure a lot of them will be crank Karen's
If you don't want a bear to live in your tree, don't have a bear shaped hole in it. Duh.
Leave the bear alone dude you guys f*** with his environment that looks like a new built houses you guys came on his property first that there's probably been there for years been going there for years
Awe bearzy-puff! They best let you be 💕
He does own the tree.
To you fools in the comment section saying leave the Bear alone, I would love for the bear to maul you or your kids and see what your opinion is after that
Please don't hurt him
Let him hibernate!!!
