You might know that cats like to nap on top of refrigerators, but you probably wouldn't expect a 125-pound bear to try anything similar. Well, shoppers in a Wisconsin supermarket learned a little something about our ursine friends when a black bear made its way into their grocery store and headed straight for the beer cooler. Hey, where else would any self-respecting Midwestern bear go?
According to MSNBC, the bear did its shopping on a Friday night at Marketplace Foods in Hayward, Wis., 140 miles northeast of Minneapolis. It strolled in through the automatic doors and climbed onto the 12-foot-tall shelf in the beer cooler where it hung out for about an hour. Then it went bowling with some of its buddies. Just kidding! Officials from the Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources tranquilized and removed the bear. The bear has not yet announced whether it plans to sue for shopper discrimination.
