Highlands Ranch, United States - July 07, 2024

A bear's unexpected visit to Highlands Ranch stirred up quite the commotion, prompting a swift response from the Douglas County Sheriff's Office (DCSO) and Colorado Parks and Wildlife.

Dubbed "Smoky" during his adventure at the Larkspur Renaissance Festival earlier in the day, the 80-pound black bear continued his escapade by wandering into residential areas. Reports flooded in as Smoky explored neighborhoods, nosing into open garages, scaling fences, and rummaging through trash cans.

DCSO deputies monitored the bear from a safe distance, ensuring residents kept clear until wildlife officers arrived. Colorado Parks and Wildlife officers swiftly intervened, successfully managing to tranquilize Smoky and relocate him to a more suitable habitat away from human habitation.
