More and more people are installing doorbell cams. Interesting things happen on their porch, and they share the video. We laugh, cry, or gasp in horror. You might see big snakes, alligators, or “Florida Man” on your porch in Florida. But you probably wouldn’t expect to see a mama bear and her three cubs visiting. However, a bear family visited a Winding Cypress community in Naples recently.

Two of the three cubs came bounding up onto the covered area of the porch in a huge rush. Mama bear and a third cub sauntered leisurely up to the door. The adorable bear family looks like Aunt Sally, and the three cousins are coming for a visit.

The bear family looks quite comfortable in the urban environment. They sniffed around a bit and explored the porch. When they found nothing interesting, the mama bear started back down the walk. Her three cubs followed although they seemed reluctant to leave without saying hello.

Although seeing a bear family on a porch may not be an everyday occurrence, something else struck us as odd. As the bears saunter away from the porch, check out the unwary pedestrian walking calmly across the street. We wondered if he may have walked quicker if he had caught a glimpse of the bear family leaving his neighbor’s front porch.
Many of the commenters under the video expressed a desire to meet the bear family in person. Some people added images from their cameras of bobcats, bears, and other animals visiting their homes. Although getting more than a fat possum and stray cats on our door camera might be cool, I’m content with that.
Please share if you enjoyed these visiting bears.
