June 14 Early AM Visitor

One of the problems we have with improper trash storage is visits from bears. These trash cans were over filled allowing the bear to gain access. One of our campers at Denali State Park said "If I had not known better would have thought this was a man in a bear suit. He walked over, stood up, pulled open the lid with one paw and racked out the trash with the other." Another camper told us two days later he had "someone" knocking on his motorhome about 5 AM. GUESS WHO? the bear was back checking for food. Once they associate an area with easy food they often have to be moved or destroyed if they become a threat.
