A huge stuffed polar bear has gone missing from a resort in northern Alberta and police are asking the public to keep an eye out for it.
RCMP say the 500-pound bruin prepared by a taxidermist disappeared from the Lily Lake Resort in Sturgeon County, north of Edmonton, following a break-and-enter that was reported to police Jan. 22.
Const. Kelsey Davidge says the resort had similar thefts last August, when two stuffed raccoons were swiped.
Investigators don91ÂãÁÄÊÓƵ™t know if the cases are linked.
Police estimate the value of the bear and raccoons to be $35,000.
Davidge says the resort has staff on site full time but no video surveillance.
A representative with the resort could not be reached, and a phone listing for it was no longer in service.
