BC Wildlife Dine and Dash: Bear surprises a homeowner, shuts down food, then leaves

Eight meat pies. A bear devoured it in front of a terrified homeowner before escaping the house in British Columbia that it somehow intruded into last weekend.

In what seemed like too wild a moment between humans and animals, Colleen Linley said she was stunned when she saw a bear at her home in Peachland early Saturday morning.

The Okanagan resident suspects that a lower door to her house was not properly secured, allowing the curious and likely hungry guy to enter.

“I found out about the bear when my sister heard the freezer fall over,” Linley told Global News about the incident at 5:45 am. “And she came into my bedroom to wake me up, to ‘better come and see’.

“That’s how I found out that the bear is there [my home]. I did not hear it.”

This is the back door of the Peachland house that the bear was able to open. Homeowner Colleen Linley says the latch was loose and the door wasn’t locked properly for the bear to open. @GlobalOkanagan pic.twitter.com/jK4YQbiVPI

“It was shocking and kind of scary,” Linley said. “You’re a little frustrated because you don’t want it to attack you.

“But now we’re laughing at it. But it was a little scary back then. It came in and stole eight meat pies from the ladies of the Legion in Rossland. They took four steps down and sat down in front of us and ate them. “

Linley said the meat pies prepared as fundraisers are “delicious, and I think” [the bear] thought it too. “

Peachland has seen an increase in bear sightings lately – so much so that WildsafeBC has gone door-to-door to warn citizens and encourage them to become more aware of the bears.
