Bears?

This certainly doesn't happen around here very often...

A young black bear was captured Tuesday afternoon in Agoura Hills after showing up the previous day in Oak Park.

The Daily News article leaves the impression that the heat may have driven the bear to go wandering but at least one source isn't really sure...

Lt. Chris Long of the California Department of Fish and Game added: "Maybe it was the heat. Maybe he was looking for love. Maybe he was looking for water or food. Either way we have him safe and he will be returned to the wild."

Whatever caused him to amble out of the hills, some people had an exciting day. I'd love to know where they think this bear had been living for the last couple of years.
