(July 29) -- Separated at birth?

On Tuesday, a black bear entered a house in Laconia, N.H., munched on some pears and grapes left on a kitchen counter, and drank some water (plus a few fish) from a fishbowl before picking up a stuffed teddy bear.

As WMUR News reported, the bear, who had come in through a sliding glass door that had been left open, was apparently scared off when the family returned home.

Homeowner Mary Beth Parkinson discovered the discarded teddy bear on the lawn, along with a box of Goldfish crackers.

"I thought maybe ... [the teddy bear] looked like a little baby cub to her, and she picked it up and then dropped it when she had to jump over the wall to get away," Parkinson told WMUR.

Surge Desk reported Wednesday on a bear attack in Montana's Gallatin National Forest, near Yellowstone National Park, that left one person dead and two injured.
