Probably a result from this:
One got ran over by traffic trying to cross I-75 in Naples a few years ago. We had an inspection out in Golden Gate Estates last week (their neighborhood signs feature two bears) and the client had moved from Ft. Lauderdale. He said “we used to get Ring alerts every morning about cars getting broken into or vandalized by thieves, now we get alerts about bears in the yard or dog’s that got loose”.
We have TONS of bears in Florida, wheel your garage cans to the street- and you’ll get a quick lesson!
FUN FACT- Both Bears and Alligators are very ticklish. Give it a try!
J/K- you’ll die, lol.

There’s a black bear running around near me in The Villages.
He’s been raiding trash cans.
I thought I left the bears behind. We had bears ALL the time where I used to live.
Here’s one.
So we have storms, flooding, hurricanes, alligators, snakes, catholic priests, sharks and now bears. Sounds like a dangerous place for my 7-year old son.
We have wild boar and fire ants too and when it gets really cold (rarely) lizards fall out of trees.
Well, you could come to MN where the cold tries to kill you for 5 months, the mosquitos try to kill you for 4 months, and the high taxes try to kill you all year. 
But the other 3 or 4 weeks are great.
Bear almost had a BAD day…
My Ring alert this morning.
This is a much greater risk to our children’s safety/well being than any bear, gator or shark…
You don’t see bears at the beach very often.
