I'm not a big fan of seeing the bears go through the garbage as well, but they sure are large, impressive beasts.

Nice shot. I'm not a big fan on any snakes so I give you lots of credit for getting this photo.

I agree with ellamay, here in Montana a fed bear is a dead bear!

or he really is used to people, which is probably worse for him, esp. when he is eating garbage already at such a young age. Isn't it such a gift to be able to spend time with wildlife. Just be careful you don't start to smell too much like his dinner, he may confuse you : )

I think that you made the right decision to get back into the car, even though they may not have been upset about you being there.

I sort of like you shot, tho it makes me very, very sad.
Such great creatures eating garbage.
I have to say it is not my experience that bears first instinct is to attack, but the car is not a bad thing to have close by. I love the pose of the one on the right.
Gosh we are ruining are world quickly : (
Anyway good capture

You're a brave soul ...It must be fun to see bears that are not locked up in a zoo.

Oh, my, garbage dumps must be heaven for bears! I don't blame you for clicking and running. Bears are Not To Be Messed With.
