Early on the morning of Tuesday, October 11, a taxi driver alerted the presence of a bear, which he spotted in the center of Ponferrada (León), as reported by the municipal police on his Twitter account, to which he attached a note to whoever sees this plantigrade running on public roads.

Upon being notified, several patrols of the municipal police of Ponferrada began searching for the animal, which they found along the river, and directed it to Mount Pahariel, a mountain near that city.

“Although they are scary animals in the presence of people, we ask that you exercise the utmost caution,” the municipal police warned.
