Marijuana Growers Use Wild Bears to Guard Pot

Posted by samzenpus on from the stuck-in-the-honey-pot dept.

Two Canadian marijuana growers were using at least 14 wild black bears to guard their crops. The pair had lured the bears onto their property with dog food in an attempt to deter thieves. Fortunately for the Royal Canadian Mounted Police pot bears turn out to be pretty chill. "They were tame, they just sat around watching... at one point one of the bears climbed onto the hood of a police car, sat there for a bit and then jumped off," said RCMP Sergeant Fred Mansveld.

    What better guards could you have than Grizzly bears with the munchies?

      To tell the difference between a black bear and a grizzly, kick it in the butt and climb a tree. If the bear climbs the tree and eats you, it's a black bear. If it knocks down the tree and eats you, it's a grizzly.
