Found your blog when I was searching how to report the brown bear that was in our back yard Saturday night. Great Blog!!
Then last night I thought that a bear sighting in Altadena might be something you want to report, to warn others, so here is the info:
We saw an approximately 5-6 foot long brown in our back yard on Glen Allen Ln about 5:00 PM on Saturday night. It was sniffing around the area where our puppy plays. My wife chased it down the hill towards Loma Alta and at least one of the neighbors on Loma Alta saw the bear at their house.
I called Sgt Luis A Villegas, who sent out an Animal Care & Control officer, who arrived about 7-8 PM. Luckily for the officer (who is unarmed), the bear was long gone.
