Bear Takes Backyard Spa Dip | Albuquerque News

A black bear took a spontaneous dip in a backyard spa in La Crescenta-Montrose, captured on video as it lounged before bouncing off — just the latest in a string of increasingly bold bear sightings across Southern California neighborhoods. From climbing school walls in Glendale to cruising parking lots and crossing busy streets, these animals are clearly getting comfortable near homes. Experts suspect the Eaton Fire may have displaced them, and while officials haven’t confirmed if it’s the same bear each time, residents from Altadena to Sunland are witnessing more frequent encounters. Thankfully, no one’s been hurt — but it’s a chilling reminder that nature’s just steps away, especially when the heat hits.
