Black Bear Not Under Any Stay-Home Order Takes Stroll Down Main Street Danbury

[TexasTowelie]

Just when everyone is inside obeying the Stay Home, Stay Safe, rule, a local bear nicknamed "Dan Berry" came to visit a local main street.

According to a post by Danbury Mayor Mark Boughton on Monday, April 20, the bear was spotted on Main Street and New Street Fire House.

The bear was spotted and photographed by Danbury City Council President Joe Cavo.

No word back from the Department of Energy and Environmental Protection if the bear is tagged or will be relocated.

At least he has plenty of room to roam.

1. I hope some of the animal rights groups are at least talking about this

now so they can come up with a plan to relocate/rescue some of these animals. When things return to normal, people are not going to want these animals in the cities. A lot of people are going to overreact and kill them, needlessly, unless relocation services can remove them and put them back in the wild.
