Bear Opens Blue Lunchbox

Occurred on July 27, 2021 / Red Lodge, Montana, USA



"We are up every morning early. We stepped outside with a cup of coffee to find a very large brown bear. He soon moved over to the dumpster, sniffing around all the corners, checking the lids. He started to get very frustrated. I had tried to shoo him off. Yelling at him did not work at all. He did not even care we were there; he was totally interested in the goods inside the dumpster. As he moved around the dumpster and pushed it around, he found one of the lids was open on top of the thing. As quickly as he could snatch the pizza box, off he ran"

One of my favorite stories:

When asked why the park couldn't invent a trash receptacle to keep the bears out, a park ranger explained, "There is substantial overlap between the smartest bear and the dumbest tourist."
