And not just any cans.</span></span><span style="color: #333333"><span style="font-family: 'Georgia'"></span></span></p><p><span style="color: #333333"><span style="font-family: 'Georgia'"></span></span><span style="color: #333333"><span style="font-family: 'Georgia'">“He drank the Rainier and wouldn’t drink the Busch beer,” said Lisa Broxson, bookkeeper at the campground and cabins resort east of Mount Baker.</span></span></p><p><span style="color: #333333"><span style="font-family: 'Georgia'"></span></span></p><p><span style="color: #333333"><span style="font-family: 'Georgia'">Fish and Wildlife enforcement Sgt. Bill Heinck said the bear did try one can of Busch, but ignored the rest. The beast then consumed about 36 cans of Rainier.</span></span></p><p><span style="color: #333333"><span style="font-family: 'Georgia'"></span></span></p><p><span style="color: #333333"><span style="font-family: 'Georgia'">A wildlife agent tried to chase the bear from the campground but the animal just climbed a tree to sleep it off for another four hours. Agents finally herded the bear away, but it returned the next morning.</span></span></p><p><span style="color: #333333"><span style="font-family: 'Georgia'">Agents then used a large, humane trap to capture it for relocation, baiting the trap with the usual: doughnuts, honey and, in this case, two open cans of Rainier.</span></span></p><p><span style="color: #333333"><span style="font-family: 'Georgia'"></span></span></p><p><span style="color: #333333"><span style="font-family: 'Georgia'">That did the trick.</span></span></p><p><span style="color: #333333"><span style="font-family: 'Georgia'"></span></span></p><p><span style="color: #333333"><span style="font-family: 'Georgia'">“This is a new one on me,” Heinck said. “I’ve known them to get into cans, but nothing like this. And it definitely had a preference.”</span></span></p><p><span style="color: #333333"><span style="font-family: 'Georgia'"></span></span></p><p><span style="color: #333333"><span style="font-family: 'Arial'"><em><span style="font-family: 'Georgia'"><em>© 2012 The Associated Press.
