ursine anomaly and is level 2/2875 classified
Unauthorized Access is forbidden
ITEM #: SCP-2875 OBJECT CLASS: KETER
Site Responsible: USMTDE Site-38 Director: J.R.
Erickson Research Head: Anthony Delucia
Assigned Task Force: Lambda-2 Level 2/2875
CLASSIFIED
Special Containment Procedures: A perimeter is to be established 2km from the center of
███████, WI, and no non-Foundation personnel are to pass this limit.
Mobile Task Force Lambda-2 "Chain Gang" is to oversee containment of SCP-2875.
Updated Containment Procedures: Due to recent findings, only MTF Λ-2 approved equipment
is considered acceptable to dispatch SCP-2875-A instances.
Under no circumstances are any personnel to attempt to dispatch an instance of SCP-2875-A
with a firearm, incendiary device, or other unauthorized implement.
Description: SCP-2875 is a phenomenon occurring only in the town of ███████, Wisconsin.
At noon every three days, between 50-100 fully grown adult Ursus arctos horribilis (mainland
grizzly bear) will appear throughout the town.
These instances are not anomalously strong or fast, or anomalously hostile, and will
generally act like any other member of their species given the situation.
The phenomenon appears to be cumulative; the instances (SCP-2875-A) will linger around
the town center for a short time before dispersing, and more instances will appear three days
later.
Due to the potential scaling issues of the bear population growth, it has become imperative
to dispatch the new instances as quickly as possible.
Currently the only feasible means to dispatch SCP-2875-A instances is by using a highly
concentrated aerosol tranquilizer spray, and then a blunt instrument with which to cause
trauma to the cranial region, as killing any of the instances using a firearm or incendiary
device results in two new instances appearing next to the corpse of the deceased instance.
As such, only Foundation standard motorized blunt force devices have been permitted for
use against the instances, with other blunt or bladed weapons being permitted per MTF
leader instruction.
Discovery: SCP-2875 was discovered by Foundation containment teams sent to investigate reports
about the sudden disappearance of an entire town of people.
Upon arriving at ███████, the situation quickly became apparent when the
town was observed as being flooded with SCP-2875-A instances.
Initially the containment teams had prepared to move all of the instances to other habitats
outside of ███████, but when the recurring nature of SCP-2875 was discovered,
the current containment procedures were established.
MTF Lead Note: I know plenty of you think that this is some kind of joke, but a town
of constantly appearing bears is serious.
Can you imagine what would happen to the local ecosystem if we let this thing go?
It was like a goddamn bear arena when we first rolled in, and that was only after a few days.
