According to the CPW, bears won’t just go after cars that have food or other attractants inside them. Instead, they will actually go car-to-car, checking all of the doors to see if they’ll open.
Several photos were uploaded to the social media site that show several cars sitting in a parking lot at night, several of which have their doors wide open. Items from the cars appear to be spread about on the ground and some of the cars have mud or other residues from the bears covering the seats.

The CPW wrote, “In the town of Estes Park, Wildlife Officer Rylands observed 8 vehicles overnight that a bear got into. ALL 8 vehicles were UNLOCKED. While not all of the vehicles had food or attractants, some bears go from car to car just to see if they’re unlocked, then hope to find food.”
In a follow-up post, the CPW added, “Make it a routine to lock ALL your windows and doors for both your vehicle and home. This is for your safety and for the lives of these amazing and resourceful creatures.”
