A man dressed up in a BEAR costume on a construction site and decided to scare his fellow co-workers.

As a construction worker turns the corner, he comes face-to-face with the "bear" and then runs for his life!! What he does not know at the time is that the bear is FAKE.

I wanted to share this with you because in recent years we have seen a spike in black bear reports around south Louisiana. Heck, there are even "Bear Crossing" signs near Patterson and Morgan City.

As funny as this may be, what happens when a "real bear" is lurking around? We hope it never happens, but we never want anyone to assume its just another prank.

Heads up, don't do this to someone around here. There have been too many sightings of bear in Acadiana to put our guard down.
