Another drunk bear story. There is video of the staggering on the linked page for your amusement. Brun assures me that this behavior is mostly found in the Black Bear variety or very tiny, Brown Bears who hang around Ieper.

Drunk Bear Wonders Through Colorado Neighborhood

(CBS) LYONS, Colo. Cops usually won't bear someone acting drunk and disorderly. But they had to in Colorado Tuesday.

A wobbly bear wondered into a neighborhood in Lyons, Colo. near Boulder.

Officers with the Colorado Division of Wildlife say the bear was probably drunk from eating fermented apples. They say this is the time of year the bears eat constantly to store fat for their winter hibernation.

The bear was near an elementary school as the students were arriving for class, so they were rushed into the school gym and kept there as a precaution.

Officers used a beanbag gun to stun the bear and then tranquilized her. She will be tagged and returned to the wild after she has slept it off.
