There was an article a while back by a columnist whose family went to Yosemite in the early 1960s.

Bear comes up to the family car, his father gets out with a jar of honey, opens it, and holds it up for the bear.

The bear stands up, balancing with forepaws on the father's shoulders, and eats the honey.

And just the honey.

He still has pictures of his father's encounter with nature.

Oops, maybe it was Yellowstone.

Probably only the case in the forest areas. If you get into the towns, dumpsters are not padlocked. They have nifty trash cans for the forest areas though. Kind of like mail slots.
