She said that the large mammal didn’t cause any damage \u2013 just a tufts fur and dog food scattered<\/a> throughout her home.\u00a0<\/p>\n

“No damage, he did however get in the bag of dog food and left trails of it all over the house, as well as a lot of fur!” Houlis told Fox News Digital.<\/p>\n

“The black bear is an intelligent animal with keen senses of smell and hearing,” the DEEP says on it’s website. “It can detect the slightest aroma of food, which may lead the bear to campsites and near homes.”<\/p>\n
