Bear gets trapped in hotel bathroom
An unexpected hotel guest in Montana caused quite a stir among staff and other guests.
A young black bear sneaked through an open window and settled in a bathroom at T-4 Lodge and Restaurant in Big Sky.
It made itself very comfortable after being unable to get back out through the window.
A number of guests posted photos online of the uninvited guest.
Police and handlers from Montana Fish, Wildlife & Parks were called but had a hard time coaxing the reluctant bear out.
Eventually it was tranquilized and removed safely.
"They were professional and safe, and provided a great opportunity for folks to learn a little bit about wildlife management," the hotel posted on Facebook.
However it did cause a few hundred dollars of damage.
