Photos: Mama Bear and Cub Chow Down in Monrovia Tree

A mother bear and her cub feasted on fruit in a backyard tree on Ridgeside Drive Thursday.

A mama bear and her cub climbed a tree in the 800 block of Ridgeside Drive Thursday afternoon and chowed down.

"This mama bear and her young cub stopped by and spent about a half hour hanging out and eating in a tree in my backyard before climbing down and scampering off back into the wilderness," reader Tim Macias wrote in an email.

Thanks to Tim Macias for sharing these great photos.

Wow - what an insulting, non-constructive post. You live in a city whose citizens banded together toRead More tax themselves to save it Foothill wilderness, raised funds to renovate its schools and to build a state of the art library. The fact that one one single event in the year didn't go the way you wanted made you ashamed to be a Monrovian suggests you need to seriously rethink your priorities in life. As the first response said, quit complaining and get involved. Its not very hard in this city to find out how to volunteer if you had given it a slight effort. And the volunteer groups like the one that put the event together are starving for help since tearing people down is a lot more popular these days than putting in hard work. You are the one who should be ashamed.

The street fair the day before had more going on than Monrovia Day. I'm 21 and even I remember backRead More when everyone used to look forward to the days long celebration, it really is a shame.

Who was that face painter? She was really good with the kids, even the wiggly ones. She also wasRead More giving away little handmaid mermaids. Some of the stuff at the celebration was cool. I think next year the city council should be the dunkees for the dunk booth.

Cool presentation. Many of us have had our own encounters and all of us have seen numerous photosRead More and videos so your creative approach freshened it up for us.

A California city will never prevail in a lawsuit against the STATE. All CA. cities must merge toRead More sue in mass under Federal RICO laws while we still have Federal laws. Filing alone at the State level is useless. Wake up people.
