I heard various odd noises this morning, but I chose to scratch myself and fall back to sleep. I should have grabbed the camera!
An ursine tossed my garbage can and then went into the bed of my pickup looking for the solitary apple that was in my gear there. It didn't get anything.
If you don't know where you're headed, any road could get you there.

Reminds me of the thread that Craig posted several months back, except that person left the food INSIDE her car. :smt011

No, thats never happened to me. Forget those pigs shoot that damn bear. :smt044 I think you are going to need a bigger fryer Andy. :smt006 I made jerky out of a big 5pound piece of bear neck once. Kind of fatty but good flavor.  Thats a nice print shot Juan.

In Alaska I had one take a tour through my apartment hallway once. Never had one mess with my truck though.
Cool pics, but what a slob that bear was!
What are the legal ramifications if you cap a bear rummaging around in your vehicle?

Bad thing about this is if it believes there is food it will be back.

Bears in Willits? Uh, does a pot plant grow in the forest? I hear you have to be careful if you add fishmeal to your outdoor gardens, the bears will dig it all up.
I get visited about every 4 months. My garbage is really clean, but they'll still go for an empty tube of toothpaste. My fish cooler, though spicnspan white, probably still smells good. :smt003
