Bear Cavalry strikes again!

It seems California’s flag is appropriate, as this story echoes one we brought to you a few weeks ago. The Bear Cavalry has struck again, this time at a middle school graduation ceremony!
Apparently one young teenage black bear wanted an education so badly that he decided to enter Ramon Garza Elementary School in Bakersfield, California, scaring the students, and causing staff to usher them inside for safety.
The bear then wandered over to the neighbouring Sierra Middle School. This understandably threw the school into chaos and lockdown, while the California Department of Fish and Game were called and eventually tranquillized the bear (with assistance from Kern County Animal Control) at a nearby apartment complex; he was later moved to a remote area and released.

My undergraduate university shut down the library that was in the dead center of campus because they built a huge new facility. Apparently over the Christmas break, Public Safety officers weren’t doing their patrols because a black bear made it across two highways, onto campus, and went into the basement of the old library to hibernate.
