Has The West Side Bear Returned?
The bear the Walker Police Department refer to as 'Yogi' has been sniffing around the west side of Grand Rapids again. Did he not hear about the travel ban?
Bears don't understand human rules, so apparently Yogi is unaware that Thursday, Governor Gretchen Whitmer banned travel between residences. He's come down from the north woods to sample the dumpster fare of local restaurants. Boy, is he going to be disappointed.
Last time Yogi was here, they tranquilized him and shipped him up north. He probably was told to leave by the other bears up there.
The Walker Police Department posted this heads up on their Facebook page Friday, calling it 'Summer of the Bear 2: the Return of Yogi.
