B.C. couple evict black bear after it attempts to den under their home

A Vancouver Island couple say they were shocked to learn that a black bear set up a den underneath their home.

Crystal Weaver and her family live on a Duncan, B.C., property near a river that she calls a wildlife corridor.

The next morning, her husband went under the deck to investigate and came face to face with a black bear.

"I've never seen him move so fast," said Weaver, adding that her husband jumped back and quickly scurried out from under the home.

In a reversal of the Goldilocks fairy tale, the black bear found the Weavers' home was just right for napping through the winter, pushing itself to the back of the crawlspace, directly beneath their bedroom.
