A family of five bears made a late night check for food in AbbotsfordB次元官网网址檚 Eagle Mountain neighbourhood

Abbotsford B次元官网网址 reader Manisha Mangat sent in the video from a security camera located on her garage door from just after 3 a.m. on Thursday (May 12).

The mother bear and her cubs walk onto the driveway and sniff around for food near the garbage bins before departing off camera.

Mangat said this is the first time she has seen the entire family.

B次元官网网址淭he night before the big bear was wandering around my house and knocked over my garbage can and was rummaging through the trash,B次元官网网址� she told The B次元官网网址.

She said she has alerted local conservation officers about the bears.

May is usually the month when many bears end their hibernation or state of lethargic sleep which ordinarily begins in the late-fall.

The four cubs is significant, as the average number of cubs per litter is usually one to three. A female black bear can produce a litter of up to five cubs every two years. Cubs typically weigh around five pounds by the time they emerge in the spring.
