The title says it plainly: an animal has climbed a tree, the kind of moment that once drew crowds to Yellowstone's roadsides. For much of the early twentieth century, bears in the park learned that visitors and open garbage dumps near lodges meant easy meals, and many came to beg along the roads. The 1930 date places the scene in the years when roadside feeding was a familiar part of park life, well before the National Park Service phased it out in the 1970s. Bears and tourists shaped each other's habits there in ways that are worth keeping in mind when you look at a picture like this.
