The owners of the store at Tipton Gas Bar in Lake Cowichan, B.C., were baffled when a black bear walked in and stole a bag of gummy bears.

    I love how he/she had to look around first. Man I feel that bear, I too can never figure out which snack I want either.

    at first, i though this was setup for a joke

    then i saw the content of the post and thought it was some sort of ironic or deadpan joke

    …then, coming from the “all” page, i saw the community and the link to an actual news website

    There are multiple ways it could have misread the label there… is that the food for bears, or is it packaged berries, making it food for bears?

    While what the bear did makes it a “most wanted” bear on the conservation officer’s list, I tend to look at this bear as having made the best of a bad situation. This sure beats the “natural” behaviour of killing someone’s chickens and destroying their property.

      Yeah but he’s on the wanted list because it’s terrible behavior for a bear. He didn’t even try to pay!

    Wait until we see the video of that bear’s parents dragging him back there by the ear to Apologize to the shopkeeper.

      Employee 1: Good thing it wasn’t a panda

      Employee 2: Why?

      Employee 1: Google it

      Employee 2 (finds description of panda on Google)

      Panda: black and white bear, eats shoots and leaves

      I clicked to see the punchline and was surprised that it’s a real story
