It’s not uncommon to catch people stopping to enjoy their neighbours’ Christmas decorations, and it appears the same seems to be true for wildlife.
Port Coquitlam’s Lexi Verano has shared video of a bear taking an interest in the inflatable snowman she has propped up outside her front door.
Footage from a doorbell camera shows the bear walking up to the snowman and pawing at it. The bear sits down as it continues to swipe at the inflatable, and at one point nibbles at the snowman’s hand.
It doesn’t take long for the bruin to lose interest and walk away.
The video was taken on Tuesday and shared to social media.
It’s not uncommon for bears to be seen this close to homes in the Tri-Cities — with a multiple sightings reported throughout the year.
