Curious Black Bear Bites Rearview Mirror

Occurred on June 4, 2022 / Prince Albert National Park, Saskatchewan, Canada

: "I was at Waskesiu Lake (Prince Albert National Park) when I drove up to a bear in the middle of the road. I slowed down my vehicle and he came right up to me to say, "Hello!" He started to eat my mirror on my car so I honked at him a couple times and he left the vehicle alone. These are wild animals and I would never normally get so close but since I was in a locked vehicle with the windows rolled up and he came up to me, it was a pretty rare sighting. Unfortunately, this likely means this bear has been fed from a vehicle since he was very comfortable coming up to me."
