WORCESTER – A family of black bears has become the talk of Worcester after the family was seen wandering throughout neighborhoods in the city.

Three bears spotted

“It was definitely breathtaking to see a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity,” said Brianna Emond-Parkin who saw the bears.

Three black bears were busy frolicking and climbing up a tree in Brianna’s backyard. She said this has never happened during her 25 years living in Worcester.

“I was so shocked, I was like oh my God and I had to run out and tell my mom what was out there,” Brianna said.

So Brianna called her mother, Tracy.

“They looked really healthy like they’re ready for their hibernation, but they just didn’t look threatening obviously behind the glass door it’s easier to say that, but they just looked like they were looking around they played on the tree then they just kept moving on,” Tracy Emond-Parkin said.
