A bear was discovered stranded in a skateboarding park in the Colorado town of Snowmass. Park staff believe it stumbled in overnight and was unable to climb the steep sloping concrete walls to escape.

Staff from the Parks and Recreation Dept placed a ladder for it to use - which it did eventually.

The bear wandered off, and no injuries to people or bear were reported.

1. That's so neat. They're not 'dumb animals'.

3. Not at all, The National Park Service has to keep changing trash cans

The bears figure out after a few years how to get into any designs they have come up with.

They can break into cars if there is food inside.
