If you can’t get a bear to stop seeking human food, at least put that proclivity to good use.

My Dad had two bear encounters while camping.

The first in his teens as a Boy Scout, he'd brought potato chip into his tent for the night.

The bear managed to swipe under the tent and under Dad's pillow, to grab the chips. (ya, I gave him crap for the camping pillow)

The second was in his 70's when he thought that under the truck was a safe location for the cooler.

The bear came by in the middle of the night and managed to get to the cooler. (which Dad watched from inside the truck camper shell.....)

at least 50 of those were known to be human caused, often related to habituation.

What an euphemistic way to talk about human bear conflicts caused by an ever increasing population of grizzly bears.

YOGI says this about ability to open coolers(”pic-a-nic baskets”:

“It’s because I’m smarter than the average bear.”

Where’s the exploitation of animals group? And what are they saying?
There’s always someone opposed to animals being used for petty things....

To me it looked like they were having fun.

“15,000 calories per day during the summer.” That is a massive amount of food.

I saw a bear walking toward me while hiking in the Sequoias. The memory still gives me fear today.

Tim Treadwell and his wife did not to read a few books about bears before living with them. Then they paid for their lack of information. Brutal deaths.

Thankfully, the captive bears are given puzzles to solve to help hikers stay safe.
