VIDEO: Bears in the US do what monkeys do in SA

A woman shared how she found a bear in her kitchen...

Anyone living in South Africa will know that the vervet monkeys and the baboons are our friendly (sometimes not so pleasant) neighbours. 

They have a way of getting into our homes and businesses and causing their fair share of havoc. Some call them menaces, but we consider them distant family members who always show up when you least expect them. 

In the same way, we have monkeys and baboons in South Africa, the Americans have bears.  

But we are not talking about Yogi Bear or Baloo here; we are talking about actual big bears that are wild and can be highly dangerous. 

In a video posted by Jazmin Montalvo, she explained how she walked downstairs to find a bear rummaging through their fridge. She also shamelessly admitted that she was intoxicated at the time. Not quite how you want to be when a bear is in your house...

Watch the video from TikTok below. 

@jaz.montalvo imagine walking down the stairs drunk and theres a mf BEAR in the house 😭 #bear #bigback ♬ Funny - Gold-Tiger

The video has more than 28.2-million views and shocked many people. When we see the bear, we notice the door was opened; whether or not the door was left open or not, we cannot confirm. 

But the bear noticed the humans and cut his visit short, which is more than we can say for monkeys and baboons. They will sit there until they have no other choice.

Many people commented on the judgmental look the bear gave the girls when he looked in the fridge, not to mention the fact that they would choose a bear in their house over a man breaking in any day.
