A bear was seen on a grocery run at a California grocery store, possibly for the second time in a matter of days.

CBSLA out of Los Angeles reported on Aug. 31 that a bear was seen in a Safeway in Lake Tahoe, California, on cell phone video taken Aug. 27. In the clip, the bear was seen walking around in the produce section.

The bear is seen with yogurt or some kind of dip.

Days earlier, a bear was recorded in the store with a bag of Tostitos chips in its mouth.

It’s not clear if it’s the same bear or not.
