And it just kind of dawned on me: It’s a bear.” Certain that no one would believe him unless he had proof, Smith grabbed his phone, gathered his courage and went back outside to capture a video. “Sure enough, the bear was still there, eating garbage,” Smith said. “I’d just gotten done cleaning out the deep freezer, and it was into the old freezer-burned ice cream.” According to Smith, the bear seemed completely unbothered by his presence, even though he was only about 25 feet away. Unsure what to do, Smith called the police. Then he watched the bear ransack his trash pile until a police cruiser arrived half an hour later and
