I never expected to write a sequel to my previous bear-themed post. Then again, I never expected this.
Today I bought a new bike (since my other one was stolen two months ago 
). It’s a good bike that will get me back and forth to school and work so I don’t have to drive all the time! Anyway. That isn’t the story. The story begins when I biked home from the bike shop. I came down my street, but when I got to the block on which I live, there were police cars parked at the corner and neighbours standing on the sidewalk watching something.
A baby black bear had climbed up a tree on the corner! And I have pictures. 
I also got some video, which I posted on YouTube. It’s long and not that exciting—they just tranquilize the bear and then put him in the MNR bear trap. But it’s mildly odd, considering that we live in a fairly urban part of the city.
Ironic, eh? We get bears near the gallery all the time—in fact, the MNR set up a trap outside the gallery on Sunday—but I never actually saw one. Then today I see one, in a tree, near my house. The universe is indeed quite weird and wonderful.

Irony at its best.
We had one in my parts a few years back, interesting but kinda boring at the same time. They usually just come out of hiding to look for food and junk
I feel sorry for the little buggers sometimes
