This photo provided by Ben Story shows a bear inside Story's car early morning on Friday, July 23, 2010, in Larkspur, Colorado. Ralph Story doesn't hold anything against bears, even though one broke into his car early Friday morning in Larkspur, Colorado and totaled it.
"He was just looking for something to eat; that's what bears do," Story said. "Anyone who lives out here knows there's going to be wildlife here. We learn to live with it."
