Bear guard

Col. David Maharrey, 96th Civil Engineer Group commander, installs "bear latches" on garbage cans in the Poquito Bayou housing area, Jan. 29 at Eglin Air Force Base. Volunteers from the 96th CEG are installing the latches on every garbage can in housing in hopes of discouraging bears from using the trash as a food source that will keep them coming back. In addition to the latches, the volunteers are also going door-to-door distributing information on methods to prevent bears from returning. All housing residents should have the latches installed within the next few weeks. (U.S. Air Force photo/ Airman 1st Class Anthony Jennings)
