Forget Goldilocks! At Wildwood Devon conservation park in England, two adventurous young bears decided it was their turn to break in – or rather, break out – and help themselves to a feast. The culprits? European brown bears named Lucy and Mish.
Earlier this week, the mischievous duo made a daring escape from their enclosure. Their destination wasn’t the forest, but straight for the park’s food storage area. There, they discovered a sweet treasure: a week’s supply of honey!
The bears reportedly gobbled up the sticky haul before the inevitable sugar crash set in. Their honey-fueled adventure concluded not with a getaway, but with the pair settling down for a long, well-deserved nap right inside the storage area.
Wildwood Trust, which manages the park, shared the amusing tale in a social media statement, confirming the bears’ temporary breakout and subsequent sticky situation. A video capturing glimpses of the “naughty” bears during their escapade has also circulated, delighting viewers.
The story of Lucy and Mish’s honey heist has garnered widespread positive reactions online. Commenters have found the bears’ antics adorable and humorous, drawing playful comparisons to famous fictional bears known for their love of sweet treats. The incident, while requiring management attention, seems to have charmed animal lovers, highlighting the individual personalities of the resident brown bears at the UK conservation park.
