BAKER
LAKE, Wash. (AP) - Rain-eeeeer .... Bear? When state Fish and Wildlife agents
recently found a black bear
passed out on the lawn of Baker Lake Resort, there were some clues scattered
nearby — dozens of empty cans of Rainier Beer.
The bear apparently got into campers' coolers and used his claws and teeth
to puncture the cans.
And not just any cans. "He drank the Rainier and wouldn't drink the
Busch beer,"
said Lisa Broxson, bookkeeper at the campground and cabins resort east of
Mount Baker.
Fish and Wildlife enforcement Sgt. Bill Heinck said the bear did try one
can of Busch, but ignored the rest.
"He didn't like that (Busch) and consumed, as near as we can tell,
about 36 cans of Rainier."
A wildlife agent tried to chase the bear from the campground but the animal
just climbed a tree to sleep it off for
another four hours. Agents finally herded the bear away, but it returned
the next morning.
Agents then used a large, humane trap to capture it for relocation,
baiting the trap with the usual: doughnuts, honey and, in this case, two
open cans of Rainier.
That did the trick.
"This is a new one on me,"
Heinck said. "I've known them to get into cans, but nothing like this.
And it definitely had a preference."
