It's so hot in Florida, bears are pool-hopping.
Pensacola News JournalPENSACOLA, Fl. — With heat indexes reaching near-record temperatures in the Florida Panhandle, even the state's furriest residents are seeking refuge from the sun.
HBTS Recreation Center General Manager April Salazar told the News Journal that the first sighting was June 20 between 8:30 and 9:30 a.m. The black bear entered the pool property from an adjacent neighborhood and took a dip in the pool to cool off before going on its way, Salazar said. Nobody was in the pool and nobody was injured. Pool maintenance workers saw the bear and reported it to management.
Salazar alerted the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission both times, and an agent came out to try to locate the bear, but couldn't find it.What to do if you see a bear: If you cannot vacate the area or enter a building, group together with other people to make yourself appear larger. This should deter the bear from approaching your group. Yell, clap your hands, make as much noise as possible , but do not chase/follow the bear as it moves away from you. Stay in one spot and continue to make noise until the bear is far enough away that you and your group can proceed to the nearest building. Do not run.
