Last year a storm split a tree in the yard behind me in a similar fashion, then a squirrel fell into the split and couldn't get back out, and eventually died in there.

pears are bad for splitting. Cut it out and replace it. Hell, you could probably plant another Bradford pear and have an identical tree in a few years.
Not that I'd recommend another bradford pear. |

This tree was probably 25 years old. It's pretty big for a pear tree.

Bradford pears are terrible trees, especially in the Midwest. Though fast growing, they grow multiple trunks and are prone to splitting in ice storms. You won't find many nurseries that would recommend planting them unless you're a developer planting the common areas or a contractor looking to do the landscaping on the cheap.
My vote: cut it down |

Burn it. BBQ.
Go with a Cleveland Select Pear. More resistant to ice/wind damage. http://www.advancedtree.com/tree_clevelandpear.htm |

If it is still doing good I would tie the tree together.. You could also get some wire ala old school fence wire..
