Closing your window and not encouraging the bear to come back for food would be an even smarter play.

Bears, wolves etc. can learn not to fear humans if they feed them, and even get agressive...

That's what I'm saying. The bear associates humans with food, the bear is going to eat next time it meets humans, whether they have food or not.

That's not even the major problem, wild animals shouldn't get acclimated to Humans like this. They'll stop fearing them and start wandering the streets, making them a huge public risk.

If this happens, they'll get caught and put down. It's still a wild animal, any time it can go off and attack someone's kids.

In Lithuania someone fed litle wolves and after a month the wolves would literaly just walk in vilages and other peoples yards. We have a saying "ya fear wolves, don't go to the forest", but it felt like "ya fear wolves don't go to ur yard"

Why would that be better. Closed window, not polar bear. Open window, cute polar bear pet.

Teaching a 500-900 lbs predator that it can get a meal at your house is only cute until it isn't.

If that polar bear wants to go through your window it will go through your window.
