Animal experts in Croatia say a bear has learned howto trick people to let him in by knocking at the door.
They believe the 220- kilogram brown bear probablylearned the trick while nudging (轻推) a door toget it to open.
Experts have a guess that the nudging was mistaken bythe owners for knocking and that the bear, pleased by the result, repeated thetrick.
The Loknar family from Gerovo in western Croatia saidthe bear had knocked at their door three times and they were now refusing toanswer the door.
‘‘We jumped out of the window as he came in throughthe door and went into the kitchen to take some food for the first time.” MumNevenka Loknar told a reporter from a local newspaper. “I opened the door andsaw him standing there and I didn’t believe my eyes at first, then I ran for itas he walked in as if it was the most normal- thing in the world.”
Bears are a common thing in the woods around here, butno one has ever heard of a bear that knocks at the door.
Mum Nevenka Loknar said, “The bear is so intelligent.It’s incredible. We’ve tried to put up lots of obstacles to stop him coming in,like a wire fence but he still gets through. I wouldn’t be surprised if he knewhow to use wire cutters.”
