Black bears are occasionally seen in Tujunga, which is within LA’s city limits. The last California grizzly bear killed in Southern California was shot in Tujunga Canyon in 1916.

Incidentally, black bears are not native to Southern California. They were introduced in 1933 during the governorship of James “Sunny Jim” Rolph.
