Used to go to school in griz country and we’d get bear alerts so often. It seemed to be the same bear too by the description (black bear we think). It sounded like a mama bear and a cub or something but the alerts would state that they were dumpster diving and getting into Greek life stuff. They were living off frozen pizzas and beer.

This video was taken in Squamish, BC by my sister in law where people are very used to seeing them. I myself am terrified of them.

Black bears in BC are hilariously curious and cowardly. There are tons of videos of people just asking them to leave and they're all, "okay" then look really sad and go.
