Bear Breaks Into Estes Park Home | Colorado Springs News
Description
An 80-year-old woman in Estes Park survived a terrifying bear attack after the animal broke into her home through an unlocked window—just one of thousands of escalating bear encounters across Colorado this year. As drought shrinks natural food sources, bears are increasingly turning to human habitats, with officials reporting over 6,000 sightings—nearly double last year. The woman received medical care, and authorities are now hunting for the specific bear involved while urging residents to lock doors, secure trash, and eliminate attractants. With bears ramping up their search for food before hibernation, safety and cooperation are more vital than ever.
