Summary
- A small black bear was reported in the wash area near Laurel Canyon Blvd and Moorpark St in Studio City, California.
- Authorities have requested an aviation unit to assist in locating the bear as it was last seen moving eastbound.
- Residents are urged to remain calm and keep a safe distance — never approach, feed, or attempt to photograph a bear at close range.
- If you encounter a bear, do not run. Back away slowly while facing the animal, make yourself appear large, and speak in a firm, calm voice. Give the bear a clear escape route and do not corner it. If a bear charges, stand your ground — most charges are bluffs.
- To avoid attracting bears, secure trash cans and bring them inside overnight, do not leave food or pet food outside, and clean barbecue grills after use. Feeding bears is illegal in California and dangerous for both people and the animal.
