Urban bears: the lure of easy food tempts wild bruins to embrace city life
Article Abstract:
Bears in Alaska are attracted to areas in which food is stored or kept, as the food is usually easy to obtain. More bears are venturing into city garbage dumps or cabins in the wilderness than in years past and becoming bolder with their behavior, but the animals most likely seek food because their natural sources are lacking. Advice for being safe around the bears is given.
