[QUOTE="RogerPA, post: 2272884, member: 70741"] I was told this story from an old guy that had a hunting cabin in the Adirondack Mountains of NY State: Seems he had several tin cans of various fruits, vegetables, and corned beef hash stored on a shelf in the cabin. Upon entering the cabin for the fall clean-up, it was instantly obvious a black bear had broken in and gorged itself on all the canned goods by simply tearing them open with its teeth. During the clean-up the old guy noticed there were a half-dozen unopened cans mixed in with the torn-open empties. And in every single one of the unopened cans were beets! So the old guy surmised this black bear didn’t like beets. What he couldn’t tell, was the bear able to read the labels? Or was he able to smell the beets inside the tin cans? The mystery continues to this day…. [/QUOTE]
