Description
[Post] From the river side, a mother bear stuck its head out from the guardrail onto the sidewalk, repeatedly peeking out and retreating. It then slipped through a gap in the guardrail, walked onto the sidewalk, and ate a horse chestnut that had fallen there, then moved to the middle of the road and looked back, waiting for the cub to emerge; when the cub did not appear, it again wandered slowly along the road and sidewalk before returning to the river side and vanishing.
