The bears are awake, and one Estes Park man found that out the hard way Wednesday night.

According to the Estes Park News, Inc. Facebook page, a man (whose name was not shared) came out of his bathroom Wednesday night to find a big, black bear standing just 5 feet away from him in his bedroom.

The man yelled, and the bear turned around and ran out of the house.

Be sure to lock your doors and windows, as these hungry bears are beginning to come out of hibernation.
