The Grizzly charge below the black bear video is impressive.

That's what 800 pounds of solid muscle sounds like when it charges towards you.

I know we have black bears in my town, because the police circulated pictures of one eating at a bird feeder less than a mile from me. I've never seen one.

They have them in Colorado Springs. Here's a video of a bear stealing a dumpster from behind the Edelweiss Restaurant:

Location.

Reportedly, he visited on two different nights.

The bear's lucky he didn't meet up with a FReeper.

All one runner needs is to outrun the other!

Here's a video of a bear stealing a dumpster from behind the Edelweiss Restaurant:

I saw a video similar to that years ago, a bear was picking over a household dump in a wooded area and he came across an old electric stove with inviting odors from the oven. He rolled that stove end-over-end through the woods for several miles.

My sister in law has a house in rural Montana. She has had a mama grizzly and 2 cubs roaming her property and yard for the last few days. The game wardens have set up a trap in her drive way but so far they haven't caught her. She has a tag so she has been caught before and is wary. These are the most dangerous kind, the ones who hang around houses and come out in the daytime. I am glad I am not there. :[

In America, bear steals stove. In Russia, bear steals car!
