Figures... according to the New York Times "Yellow-Yellow", a black bear living in the Adirondack High Peaks area, has defeated the BearVault! It's a simple container, much like one of those freakin' medicine bottles that you can never get open when you have a migrane.

Now, I may be a complete tool but even I know that you shouldn't be posting those kinds of instructions where bears can be reading them... like on the side of the BearVault itself. Especially with such nice, easy to decipher graphics. Not to mention the fact that I've seen a bear reading a stray issue of the Times (that a foolish camper left laying around) picking up handy tips for foraging for food.
No wonder "Yellow-Yellow" was so successful.
But as long as she's getting all those tasty snacks out of the BearVault, as least she won't be tempted to dine on campers. Having a full tummy makes her a "Mellow Yellow-Yellow."
