I saw a nature show where they use bears to in zoos to test “bearproof” items

There’s a a nature-reserve kind of place where they actually test garbage cans, coolers etc. for being bear proof. They put them out and let their bears do their worst. If I recall correctly, they have two or three categories: Fail, 30 minutes, 60 minutes maybe a few more.

Nope don’t like camping out at all. Me and my dad have fallen asleep in the lawn chairs looking at the stars. The rest of the family slept inside with the a/c on. My dad and I were perfectly comfortable outside…too darn cold in the house.

Try the Gordon Buchanan method of testing bear proof – https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RJra0fcMsVU

So much for your little tricks, hyoomans.

Heeere’s Yogi!

Let him go at it. You probably don’t want him to come into the tent looking for the key.

Yeti machete

They did it with a house and the bears loved it. It didn’t protect from a hungry bear.

He wins.. if, he is able to bring the receipt back to the store.

If he can’t get in, there’s always the tent taco.

Hey, it can still be bear-proof even if it’s not axe-proof.

Just quietly zip up the tent and go back to sleep. Sure it was a bad dream
