School principal survives bear hiding in dumpster

Fortunately, the principal was able to quickly close the dumpster lid and retreat to safety, without any harm done. However, this incident highlights the importance of taking precautions to prevent encounters with wildlife.
In areas where bears are known to be present, it is important to securely store food and trash so as not to attract them. Additionally, it is a good idea to be aware of your surroundings and to make noise while approaching dumpsters or other potential bear hiding spots, as bears are more likely to flee if they are aware of your presence.
