YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

A bear that made its den in the crawl space of an Altadena, California home was finally removed after over a month, before returning to the house 24 hours later.

Altadena resident Ken Johnson said the animal began denning beneath his home around Thanksgiving, twisting gas lines and toppling bricks as he came and went. Johnson was eventually able to evict the unwanted housemate with the help of BEAR League, a California-based nonprofit, on Jan. 6.

The bear was soon caught on camera once again stopping by the home, and according to ABC13 has since been spotted under two more houses in the area.
