    This is the best summary I could come up with:


    A family of bears in Monrovia, about 30 minutes from Los Angeles, took a stroll through a backyard on Monday afternoon, exploring their surroundings and investigating a pool.

    Video captured by the home’s occupant Rick Martinez showed a bear and her cubs roaming the property and scratching a tree.

    At one point the adult bear hopped into the pool and went for a swim while two tiny cubs watched on curiously.

    Martinez and his partner, Brian Gordon, frequently see bears on the property, which is at the edge of a national forest.

    They stay away from us.” The bears avoid humans, he said, and will turn around if they spot anyone, so they give the animals space and watch them from inside the house or via cameras.

    Martinez said that he enjoys the bear visits and that the couple takes precautions, like not leaving trash outside and disposing of garbage away from the home.
