Which of these best summarizes the article? A Black bears at Yosemite National Park have grown used to obtaining food from sources
provided by humans, including locked cars. The bears find it relatively easy to break into
vehicles, such as minivans. The more bears depend on humans for food, however, the more
contact they have with humans, which is ultimately dangerous to both parties.
B Minivans may be the top choice of black bears in Yosemite National Park because they are
relatively easy to break into and because minivans tend to emit food odors or contain large
amounts of food. Bears seem to have learned from one another which type of vehicle to target
and the best way to break in.
C Scientists conducting a study at Yosemite National Park have found that bears are more likely
to break into minivans than any other type of vehicle. Several possible explanations for this
behavior have been offered, including the structure of the minivan and the increased likelihood
that minivans hold food. Researchers stress the danger of bears depending on humans for food.
D in a study conducted for the Journal of Mammalogy, scientists found that black bears break
into different types of vehicles with varying frequency. The bears are capable of breaking
windows, bending doors open, and ripping out seats, all in search of food. Their favorite vehicle,
the minivan, was not necessarily the most available.
