Whatever went rawr will have plenty to eat when it comes outta the bushes.
It probably has covered the 5 miles or so from where it was spotted to my backyard and will steal my BBQ Chicken this afternoon. I best keep a baseball bat with me.
Why not though, there are fox and coyote living in the city and they get the random bear (growing population in WNY) there have also been pics/vids supposedly of Mountain Lions in the Southern Tier and Finger Lakes, though DEC denies it. For one to get into the center of the city before being seen or munching on someone seems unlikely.
