Occurred on November 20, 2020 / Tahoe, California, USA

: "My husband and I took a road trip in November 2020 around Lake Tahoe and were happy to see the recent snowfall and naively hopeful that we would see some bears, and we were ecstatic when we finally did! We saw one hanging out by a dumpster when all of a sudden its friend poked his head out of the dumpster, and they started to play with each other. They were so cute! One started to walk past our parked car, and we noticed that it had a hurt paw; it looked like it had been broken and healed in the wrong position. But the bears were certainly cute! And we were excited to see them!"
