Episode Details

Bears are on the move—and they’re coming for your trash. A brutal summer drought is pushing hungry bears into urban areas, sparking record sightings and dangerous encounters across Colorado, New Mexico, and Utah. With double the usual conflicts, these animals are raiding homes, cars, and campgrounds—losing their natural fear of humans in the process. The fallout? Some bears get trapped in vehicles, others die from heat, and dozens have been euthanized to protect public safety. Wildlife officials warn: feeding bears—even accidentally—can lead to deadly consequences. Secure your garbage, don’t leave pet food out, and remember: a fed bear is a dead bear.
