Tom Scott went to Yellowstone to find out how to keep bears from eating garbage. At the Grizzly & Wolf Discovery Center, Tom learns how some bears escape euthanasia after helping themselves to picnic baskets or garbage. If they go to live here, they are put to work testing bear-resistant coolers and trash receptacles. We no longer actually say "bear-proof" because we don't want to overpromise.
The bears at the center are encouraged to continue getting into containers to eat human food, so they can never be released back into the wild, lest they teach other bears how to do it. But as far as trash-eating bears go, these are the lucky ones. While Tom got a great video, he now has to explain the business loss of a GoPro camera in some unusual circumstances.
The GoPro camera was ruined by water? I thought they were water proof--or at least very water resistant.
