Wild bear 'looking for a friend' breaks into California zoo, meets 3 captive bears
The century-old Sequoia Park Zoo in Eureka said that a wild, young American black bear broke into the facility and paid a visit to three captive bears of the same species.
An employee happened upon the surprise visitor during a daily inspection on Friday morning before the zoo opened. The wild bear explored some toys and interacted with the zoo's bears through their habitat fencing - and appeared friendly, zoo officials said.
"He was really, really interested in our three bears, and he introduced himself to all of them through the fence," Jim Campbell-Spickler, the zoo's director, told SFGATE. "The interaction between them was really sweet, calm and curious. We think he was just looking for a friend, though maybe that's anthropomorphizing, of course."
The zoo's three resident bears are named Tule, Ishung and Kunabulilh.
