VIDEO: Bear roams the streets and climbs walls in northeast Albuquerque<\/p>\n

\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tSTORY AS WE LEARN MORE WITH REACTION FROM BOTH SIDES. WELL WELL WELL. A BEAR SPOTTED IN THE NORTHEAST HEIGHTS THIS MORNING. THIS IS NEAR THE INTERSECTION OF PASEO DEL NORTE AND TRAMWAY. ERIC, I UNDERSTAND YOU HAVE A PERSONAL CONNECTION TO THIS BEAR. MY BUDDY, RJ GARCIA. YES. THIS WAS, I BELIEVE, HIS YARD. YEAH, THAT\u2019S RJ, AND THAT BEAR IS NOT SMALL. EXACTLY. AND YOU JUST KNOW, YOU KNOW, FROM TAKING VIDEOS ON MY OWN PHONE, IF IT SHOWS UP THAT BIG IN THE VIDEO, HE WAS ACTUALLY PRETTY CLOSE TO IT. LIKE LITERALLY KIND OF MOVING ALONG IN HIS PICKUP RIGHT NEXT. I WAS GOING TO SAY, SO HE\u2019S IN HIS CAR, SENSIBLY ENOUGH. YES, YOU CAN HAVE. I MEAN, YOU, YOU DO NOT WANT ONE OF THESE THINGS TO TURN ON YOU. DID IT HAVE CUBS? DO WE KNOW ANYTHING ELSE ABOUT IT? HE ONLY SAW ONE, APPARENTLY, IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD. THERE WAS A BAND OF MAYBE FIVE BEARS MOVING AROUND, BUT THIS WAS THE ONE THAT WAS CLOSE TO HIS HOUSE. AND THEY GET UP AND OVER THOSE WALLS SO EASILY, THEY MAKE IT LOOK EFFORTLESS. SO HAVE YOU HAVE YOU GUYS HAVE IT LIKE I\u2019VE HEARD A LOT OF BEARS IN THE NORTHEAST HEIGHTS. HAVE YOU HAD A LOT THIS YEAR? WE\u2019VE HAD A LOT OF DROUGHT. THIS IS THE FIRST ONE, THE FIRST SIGHTING THAT I\u2019M AWARE OF, I GUESS. WELL, THEY\u2019RE GOR\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n

\n\t\t\t\t\t\tBears have been spotted roaming the neighborhoods of the Albuquerque foothills. Viewers sent photos and videos to KOAT of a large bear climbing walls and roaming the streets of a neighborhood near Paseo del Norte and Tramway Boulevard on Tuesday morning. Last month, the New Mexico Department of Wildlife reminded everyone to stay alert as bears become more active during the summer months. The New Mexico Department of Wildlife says bears are generally afraid of humans and will usually avoid people unless they become used to human food sources, such as garbage or scraps left behind at campsites.\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n
