It’s smarter than the average bear!
One particularly cunning cub snuck into the backyard of a Connecticut home and snatched a bag of Doritos conveniently abandoned on the patio table, hilarious “bear cam” video shows.
The footage comes from a state Department of Environmental Protection study that clipped collars onto a select number of bears emerging from hibernation to track their behavior this summer.
The collars were outfitted with “bear cams” that provide viewers with a first-person perspective of life on all fours.
One famished bear trekked through a home’s backyard in search of something to eat, when it noticed an open bag of Doritos that the homeowner left on their patio table.
The bear sniffed the nacho cheese chips clamping its jaws down on the top of the bag and retreating back into the woods with an extra pep in its step, according to the video shared by the state agency.
The rest of the backyard was left virtually untouched, save for a few paw prints in the dirt.
The “bear cam” project comes after Connecticut reported more than 12,000 human-bear interactions over the last year — with encounters becoming increasingly frequent as deforestation forces many bears out of their natural habitats.
In late March, one bear tried to steal an entire rolling dumpster while its twin cubs watched in apparent confusion.
The bear stood on its hind legs and peered into the dumpster multiple times while trying to steer it through a parking lot, viral video showed.
It eventually gave up when it couldn’t haul the dumpster over the curb.
