CLARK, Wyo. (AP) _ Trash, including dead livestock and meat
processing waste, has been luring grizzly bears into a small
landfill in northwest Wyoming.

The Wyoming Game and Fish Department has trapped two grizzlies
this year at the landfill in Clark, a community near the Montana
line.

The bears aren't likely to return. Game and Fish moved the
animals far away.

Even so, landfill policies haven't changed. A short wire fence
stands between the landfill and any grizzlies drawn by the scent.

Environmentalist Hilary Eisen with the Greater Yellowstone
Coalition in Cody calls the situation ``worrisome'' because bears
that eat trash can become dangerous.

Grizzlies have killed two people within 50 miles of Clark since
June. A grizzly seriously injured a man a few miles from the
landfill last summer.
