A mama bear and her cubs were apparently looking to go joyriding in a minivan recently in the Adirondacks.

The I Love Old Forge Facebook page posted a video of a mama bear opening an unlocked minivan and climbing inside. Security footage seen below shows the full video capturing the bear in action as the baby cubs follow along shortly after. Vehicle doors should always be locked and you should never leave food in a vehicle either as bears show in the video just how smart they can be. This mama bear easily opens the minivan door and rummages about the vehicle along with her babies. The video was uploaded to Youtube by NYup.com with permission from Denise Montalto Pappas. It's pretty amazing footage that you must see.

Have you ever encountered bears up close and personal on your property? Have you seen anything similar to the video?
