Description:High in the Sierra Nevada mountains of California lies Mammoth Lakes, a small town with a growing population of trash-eating black bears. The task of managing the wild new residents falls on Steve Searles, an eccentric bear-man who has devoted his life to re-instilling the black bear's natural fear of humans. Steve's unique solution to the bear problem involves yelling, foot-stomping, and other forms of getting in a bear's face to express "in a language that they can understand". (26:44)
