A Sand Lake family got more than they bargained for on vacation to the Great Smoky Mountains.
Another family -- a much furrier and fussy family -- broke into two of the family's rental vans as they were packing up to leave their Airbnb in the Gatlinburg, Tennessee area.
In the video, snapped by Prussia Hawley's daughter, one bear can be seen walking right up to the van's passenger side door and opening it -- just as any human would. The bear started going through the van, rummaging around for snacks left inside.
"We were just in shock and awe. We couldn't believe it....I did not think that a bear could open the door; I was amazed," says Hawley.
The family says it was the best part of their vacation.
"I knew they just wanted food, but I love bears and I kind of felt secure that if I needed to run away I could," says Hawley.
The owner of the rental property says it's not uncommon for bears to come around, but this was the first time they'd heard of bears opening up car doors to get what they want.
Closer to home, there is a bear roaming around the Walker area and the northwest side of Grand Rapids. It's been spotted numerous times in the recent weeks, but officials say it's "getting sick of city life" and moving out of the area.
