Stoned bears?

Police in for a surprise when busting the grow op!

A few weeks ago, a news story broke in Canada that has had pretty much the whole country amused, horrified and perplexed ... when police busted a British Columbian marijuana grow operation, they found a large number of black bears on the property.  The bears were docile (hey, who wouldn't be when you're permanently stoned?!) and the owners of the property had been feeding them, wait for it ... dog food.  When the story hit the news (full story here), the public were in outrage and everyone wanted a say about what should be done.  Eventually, it was decided that the man responsible (for both the dope and the bears) would continue to feed the bears until hibernation, lessening the risk to humans - I guess nobody wants to be around a group of black bears who are withdrawing from a diet of marijuana and dog food!

The guy who has been feeding the bear feeds them ... dog food?!
