There’s Bears In Them Hills

For two weeks in a row our neighbor has put out his garbage the night before. Seems the bears notice this and invite themselves to a free snack.
It’s probably against the law to put out garbage at night, but I can’t seem to tell him this. He doesn’t speak english.
Other than having our dog eaten, the thing that gets me is that the bear chooses to take the trash down a hill next door and enjoy his feast. I can live with that.
But the people who own the yard are probably scared sh*tless… they have left the garbage there for 8 days now.
This would be OK in Sunnyvale trailer park. But it isn’t in the type of area we live in.
I’m not one to call the city… I’ll count the days and see how long it takes for them to clean it up.
Oh yeah, Vancouver has big black flies too.

Hahaha! I love your blog. I am so glad that I stumbled on it (gotta love Stumble Upon). My neighbour thinks it’s ok to throw chicken bones in the bushes of her house (we live in a town house so it’s close quarters)… this attracts skunks and raccoons. Imagine the fun when we open up our door to let our dog out and HELLO there is a skunk there. Good times had by all.
