A bear that has come by a Maryland home several times has captured the attention of the family that lives there because of the animal's ability to stand on its hind legs.

Brenda Douglas says her family has seen the bear outside their Washington County house in Hancock, Maryland so many times that they have affectionately named the bear, Boo Boo.

According to Douglas, the bear has not harmed or threatened anyone and they have enjoyed his visits.

However, Boo Boo has not come around lately as his last appearance at Douglas household came back in August.
