A large black bear was spotted lumbering across a beach in South Lake Tahoe in late August, much to the fascination of onlookers.Kennedy Wilkins was on a trip in the area when he captured this video showing people keeping their distance as the scruffy bear casually walked along the lakeshore.Black bears, which are the only bear species living in California, can range in color from black to cinnamon or blonde, according to the California Department of Fish and Wildlife (CDFW). The large mammals may cause concern as they become habituated and lose their fear of humans.CDFW advised anyone who may encounter a bear to keep a safe distance, not run or make eye contact, and let the bear leave on its own.
