Bear cub seemed to obey police officer's orders after breaking into sheriff's office

A moderately obedient bear cub visited a sheriff's office in California last week.



The cub was filmed approaching a bin at the North Lake Tahoe station. The bear grabbed the ledge of the bin.



"Do not knock over that garbage can," the deputy filming the video said. As if testing him, the cub looked up at the officer, before tipping the bin slightly.

"Nope, don't do it!" the deputy continued. "Don't. Better not, better not." The bear cub appeared to oblige.
