He's been spotted several times, and made another appearance on Monday, but Florida Fish and Wildlife officials say, he's scared of humans.

A Florida black bear was seen between the Alachua County Sheriff's Office and Hawthorne trail.

Officials say the bear is wandering around and getting into garbage--- and are asking residents to help.

"If they can bring in their attractants, pet food, garbage, he'll be on his way," said Karen Parker, Florida Fish & Wildlife spokesperson.

Parker says bears will hang out if there is free food available. So far, there have been no bear related injuries reported.
