Well, if you’re a beekeeper, Colorado Parks and Wildlife wants to help protect your hives from bears. It’s much less endearing when it’s a real life bear and not Winnie the Pooh stealing honey from you, after all.

Beekeepers that live within city limits will have to check their local rules on electric fencing.
