Feeding the Bear at Mount Rainier (ca. 1940s)

They always tell you, don’t feed the bear. But people just can’t seem to help themselves.

Here are some folks feeding a bear at Mount Rainier, probably in late 40s. It looks like a cub standing around waiting for handouts. But where there is a small cub, there is normally a protective mother bear. Hopefully this story had a happy ending.
