Black bear spotted in west Hudson neighborhood

TAMPA, Fla. (WFLA) – A black bear was recently spotted in a west Hudson neighborhood, and his antics were caught on video.

Video provided by Ryan Theil shows the bear meandering through the residential area on Saturday around 1:30 a.m.

The bear is seen crossing Theil’s driveway and walks in to the road, though no cars in the area are seen.
