When you've got the munchies, you head for the fridge, right? Well, it's no different for a young black bear in British Columbia.
Yogi, who is known to wander near the Powers Creek Retreat in West Kelowna, was caught red-pawwed in a video sting, set up to catch the culprit behind several fridge break-ins.
The retreat's caretakers, who live in a mobile home behind the property, had been puzzled as to who, or what, was taking certain items from the fridge and freezer, and leaving the door open. However, nothing else was damaged or stolen.
They set up a camera and discovered Yogi on his hind legs, expertly opening the top freezer door and rummaging around inside.
The discerning bear discards several bags of frozen vegetables before taking off with what appears to be a pie.
Sandy Lewis, one of the caretakers, says the bear has never threatened any humans or animals. And she stresses they're sharing the video because well, it's pretty awesome, and not because they want anyone to relocate him.
"We don't encourage him, he gets into the garbage which is a minor annoyance but we don't try and feed the bear."
