Sheriff Help a Massive Bear Escape From a Dumpster

Deputies in Placer County, CA came to a bear's rescue after it got trapped in a dumpster at Northstar ski resort.

In video shared by the Placer County Sheriff's Office, a deputy with a flashlight in hand is seen climbing on top of the dumpster in Truckee and opening one of the container's doors.

The bear then pokes its head and massive paws out of the dumpster but doesn't leave right away.

"Come on, Bubs. It's OK," the deputy says.

After a quick glance at his rescuer, the bear leaps from the dumpster and walks away.

"Stay out of the garbage!" the deputy says.
