Not that I have any food waste in my bins. They're just bastards.

Yeah, you can blame raccoons or bears or crows or rats or whatever you like. We all know who they're trying to thwart.

The only way to prevent this is to enforce stiff penalties and disincentivize---yeah, I can't keep going with this one, sorry.

Seriously though that trash can was probably originally designed to keep bears out. I have no idea if bears are a major problem in Greensboro, NC but I somehow doubt it.

Black bears do wander into cities looking for trash https://myfox8.com/2019/06/14/security-camera-captures-bear-walking-around-in-greensboro-neighborhood/ Brown bears will too, but don't very often, which is good because they're the murdery ones

It's kind of hosed up how bears are like this and we just let them live in our country. Completely unacceptable if you ask me.

If anything grizzlies are only considered meaner because they live in areas where food is harder to find. Bear facts in the capitalism thread

A Wizard of Goatse posted:fake bear facts gb2 D&D See gene flow between insular, coastal, and interior populations of brown bears in Alaska Which found, among other notable things that "morphologically undistinguished brown bears of the ABC islands of Alaska had a mitochondrial haplotype that were more similar to polar bears than in any other brown bears" Those Alaskan bears are grizzlies, and many of the other American brown bears in their sample were kodiaks. All technically ursus arctos, but the genetic proximity of the grizzly subspecies to the technically distinct polars is closer.
