Looks like even bears know the Colonel’s 11 herbs and spices are paw-lickin’ good.
According to WDKY [1], Kentucky resident Kendra North got an unexpected dinner guest after a black bear wandered through her open front door while she slept, smashed a thick glass table, and helped itself to her leftover KFC.
North had left the door ajar for airflow, inadvertently turning her home into a late-night drive-thru without the drive-thru.
North slept through the entire poultry pilfering. Her sister, who lives next door, spotted the bear leaving around 5 a.m. and called to warn her.
North survived the encounter without getting her feathers ruffled, although she admitted one casualty hit particularly hard: “I’m a little sad over my KFC.”
Wildlife officials are reminding residents to secure food and doors because bears are opportunistic eaters – especially when there is KFC left out for the taking.
