Bear Cub Making Habit Of Visiting Pizza Shop's Dumpster

Posted: 12:51 pm EDT June 28, 2006

A frequent diner at a Flagler County pizza place has worn out its welcome. The bear has made a habit of visiting the dumpster behind the Domino's Pizza on Highway 100 and I-95.

Its late night snacking is making a mess. Now, the health department said the restaurant will have to clean it up.

Employees want the bear to leave, but the problem is it might not have anywhere to go.

"They are just being forced out of their homes and they are going to find a new source of food like a dumpster," explained Eva Voyvin, Flagler County Animal Control.

Animal Control officers said they weren't equipped to capture the cub. And, even if they could relocate the animal, they said it would probably find its way back to a dumpster.
