Jesse posted that his dog Brickleberry was in fact not a very good guard dog, as he has been letting a bear get away with rummaging through their trash in exchange for deer bones.

Brickberry or ‘Brick’ can be seen here enjoying his bribe. According to his owner, he is a “mastiff/hound mutt with some beagle in him, and is the best boy. He is great with kids and apparently bears.” Jesse raised him after his mom died a few days after he was born.

A study on black bears found they are the most common bears in North America — and have only killed 63 people in the United States and Canada over the last 109 years. Experts state that black bears are less confrontational than grizzlies and polar bears because of how they evolved.“Black bears evolved in thickly forested areas and can escape to the top of a tree, so they never really had to defend themselves,” said Chris Morgan, a bear ecologist who wrote the just-published “Bears of the Last Frontier” told The New York Times.
