[QUOTE="DMP25-06, post: 1972664, member: 27271"] Bears are very intelligent also . I read a story , and saw the video to verify the happening , that in Minnesota ( I think that was the state where this occurred ) at the state fish hatchery , workers arrived one morning to find one of the trout ponds ( which were a long , narrow concrete fixture ) had been drained sometime during the previous night , and all of the fish were dead . The next morning they arrived and found that a second trout pond had been drained , and all of the fish had died , same as the night before . Vandals were thought to be the most likely culprits , so the Dept. of Fish and Wildlife set up a camera and floodlights that were motion activated , in hopes of capturing video of the perpetrators . Nothing happened the next couple of nights , but on the morning after the third night , after camera set-up , they found another pond dry and fish dead . They quickly reviewed the video and discovered a large Black Bear standing on his back legs , turning the steel wheel on the valve mechanism that drained the brood ponds . When the water level had dropped , the bear then got into the pond , and gorged himself on fish . One of the hatchery workers recognized the bear , saying that he had seen this bear on several occasions , at the edge of the trees that surrounded the hatchery , watching him as he had released the water to lower the level sufficiently to scoop-up the fish to load into the hatchery trucks for stocking programs at various lakes in that area .
