Hank the Tank: Fugitive burglar bear captured in California

We’ve misgendered her!

Dollface thread.

A massive and notoriously mischievous black bear has been captured after more than a year on the run following a string of break-ins in California.

The 500lbs (227kg) bear, known to fans as Hank the Tank, is believed to have broken into 21 homes in the Lake Tahoe area since 2022.

Hank - who is actually a female bear registered as 64F - will be moved to a sanctuary in Colorado.

Is this the bear that mourned his dignity after trying on too small suits?

Is this the bear that sat down on top of the dessert table at a wedding reception and was eating the wedding cake and all the cannolis?

That was in Colorado.

I would have spent good cash to have Colorado bear at my wedding. It seemed like the best party favor!

He's a rebel and he'll never ever be any good.

Will the sanctuary put her on Ozempic?

"He," r10?! Get your shit together!

Bears get very upset when their stated pronouns aren't respected.

[quoteHank will now be cared for at a Colorado animal sanctuary, and her cubs will go to a rehabilitation center in California to see whether they can be released back into the wild, according to the department.

Hey - great idea! They'll create even more mayhem.

Like mother, like son.

^ Sadly, a bare minimum understanding of genetics at r15.

That certainly looks like more than 500 lbs. to me, Hank. We need to be transparent before we discuss weight-loss strategies!

Typical.

You gays fawn over this creature, yet you have nothing but mean things to see about the similarly built and hairy Marjorie Taylor Greene!

Patty the Panzer now that we now the bear is female.

She’s more delicate looking than My Fat Daughter.

Maybe they should shoot her with Ozempic darts.
