Massive bear caught on camera sneaking into homeowners backyard spa in broad daylight

A Los Angeles-area bear has been caught on video lounging around in a homeowner’s backyard pool amid scorching heat.
The black bear was seen Sunday afternoon wandering towards the hot tub in La Crescenta-Montrose before taking a dip, KTLA reports.
The bear strolled on to the property on Cloud Avenue around 4:52 p.m. and, apparently spotting the bubbling oasis, made a beeline for the water.
“Bear alert !!!” the startled resident posted on social media. “He’s in our spa !!!”
And honestly, who could blame him?
Video shows the furry intruder settling into the water like he had been invited, seemingly unfazed by a nearby dog barking up a storm.
The bear reportedly spent less than five minutes soaking before climbing out and sauntering off, leaving the spa behind and presumably returning to whatever bears do after their afternoon wellness appointments.
The unexpected pool party is the third bear sighting caught on camera in the area in recent weeks, suggesting the local wildlife has become increasingly comfortable with the neighborhood.
Still, the latest visitor may have had one very simple motivation: it was brutally hot.
Southern California was slammed by above-normal temperatures over the weekend, with widespread heat and air quality advisories in effect, according to NBC.
Temperatures reached triple digits in some areas, with moderate to high heat-health risks as a stubborn high-pressure system pushed temperatures well above average.
Temperatures ran roughly 5 to 10 degrees above normal over the weekend.
“It’s going to be a hot one,” Meteorologist Belen De Leon warned, adding that temperatures would remain sizzling as August gets underway.
