Imagine attempting to leave for work on a Friday morning, only to find a bear sitting in the passenger seat in your car and a big pile of its crap sitting in the driver’s seat. Sounds like the beginning of a really bad joke, doesn’t it? Strangely, it’s not. For one Jetta owner, who goes by “zthomasri” on Reddit, it was a bizarre slice of reality—and maybe not entirely a surprise.
According to the car’s owner, there are a lot of bears in the area, and one of those has learned to open car doors. That alone is pretty amazing. Bears don’t have thumbs on their paws, after all. This particular bear, though, seems to be an accomplished thief. It broke into three other cars before it was somehow shut into the Jetta, where it ate a bottle of Maalox and drank four beers, and also relieved itself. It’s unclear whether the bear had eaten something a bit off in one of the other cars and was really after the antacids, or if it was just after the beer. We’re betting it was the beer.
On the bright side, at least this guy didn’t catch the bear crunching on a human skull. Must be on the wrong continent for that.
