Tom Scott was discussing this in his latest video on Bear Proof garbage containers. they’re designed to keep bears out, but some clueless people can’t open them either.
It’s the great divider. The smartest bears get to eat the garbage and the dumber bears get to eat the dumb people who can’t figure out how to throw their garbage away and keep it in their tent instead.
They’re literally just dumpsters with a little airlock chamber on top so that trash stink can’t escape and attract animals. If you’ve mailed a package at the post office and had to use one of those weird chutes, you can figure out a bear can.

Well considering I don’t live in bear country I’m sure I’d struggle the first time encountering one of those cans.

Weird chute, like the vacuum tubes you see at banks and retail stores? If so that’s kind of cool, y’know, for trash that is.
Clueless people or well-disguised bears?
Yes
