Susana Martinez, New Mexico Governor, Visited By Bear In Santa Fe (VIDEO)

Given the many issues that politicians must face, a bear is probably not high on their list of concerns. But this past weekend, New Mexico Governor Susana Martinez was confronted by this very challenge.

The Associated Press reports that surveillance video near the governor’s mansion caught a bearoverturning trash cans over the weekend, looking for food.

According to the Albuquerque Journal, a news release from the Governor’s Office stated that earlier this month, residents of the Los Alamos area were warned that bears had been displaced by the wildfire, and wandered in the community.

Fire officials reported that the Los Alamos fireerupted in late June after a tree fell onto power lines.The fire was fueled by an noticeably dry season accompanied by erratic winds, according to The Associated Press.
