Apparently, it's a bad enough problem that someone has invented the bear-proof trash can.

And at any park or campground, you'll see numerous warnings telling you not to leave any food out, so as not to attract the bears.

I must admit, it was a little unnerving sometimes to go down a trail and have to worry about encountering large, potentially dangerous animals.

Luckily, all of my bear encounters in Alaska were of a nice, friendly, cuddly nature.

At zoos and animal reserves...

Or from a very, very safe distance.

However, in case I did have a "bad bear day", I would know exactly what to do. Because of helpful posters like these.

These bears are friggin adorable. When I was in Tennessee last month a bear walked right across the trail I was on not three feet in front of me. Seemed nice enough. Didn't eat me. Obviously they are the cuddly variety.
Bad Bear Day is my new favorite saying.
I love the poster. I wonder if they teach kids that in school?
