You have to see this! Colorado family surprised to find bear in their kitchen

AN UNWELCOME VISITOR — A frightening moment for a Colorado family was caught on camera when a bear was seen inside their kitchen.
The video from a home security camera shows the bear walk right into the family’s kitchen through an open door. The homeowner reportedly explained that their home doesn’t have air conditioning so they open the doors in the morning to get some fresh air.
“I was in the bathroom with my daughter, doing her hair, and we heard a loud bang. Zara, the curious girl she is, said, ‘I’m going to go see what that is.’ So she comes running downstairs, assuming it was a plant or a picture that fell off the wall,” homeowner Nerissa England said.
That’s when the eight-year-old daughter discovered a bear in their kitchen doorway.
Footage shows the animal getting onto the kitchen table and eating a snack. The bear then walked over to the garbage can and dragged it outside.
“The bear was just lying down outside, eating all the trash. He was trying to rip open one of our milk bottles,” Zara Lee, England’s daughter, explained.
Zara’s dad quickly shooed the bear away and shut the door.
“A few minutes later, I was like, ‘Oh, I wonder if we got it on the camera,'” England said. “And so, we were watching it, and we’re all kind of shocked that we actually captured him on camera enjoying his breakfast in our kitchen.”
England said they will still leave their trash can in the kitchen and keep their door open.
“But we might just wait a few days before we open it for a long time,” she added.
