Black Bears in Connecticut Have a Grand Ol’ Time Playing on a Backyard Trampoline
There have been many many black bear sightings in the Nutmeg state these days -- It's become commonplace.
Some sightings have been enough to make you shudder. But somehow, this sighting has us saying, "Awwwwwwe, they're so cute." Maybe not that cute to the actual homeowners in Avon, CT, who captured this YouTube video the other day from inside the home.
This video of a mama bear and her cubs gently wrestling is like something out of a disney movie. The bears actually broke in and proceeded to party like it's 1999. The three cubs look like they're having a lot of fun.
The Connecticut Department of Energy and Environmental Protection says there have been approximately 6,327 black bear sightings in Connecticut in the past year alone. If you have seen a black bear, they ask that you report it to them using this link.
