A female bear — and one of three known as Hank — was captured with her three cubs by California wildlife authorities. She was responsible for at least 21 home break-ins, officials said.

Hope she at least got some pic-a-nic-a-baskets.

I was wondering what was going to happen to her. Turns out she's going to a wildlife sanctuary!

This turns out to be a rare occurrence though, between 300 to 1000 "problem bears" are euthanized in the US every year. This one was saved because of the media attention she was attracting.
