From earlier in the week.....VANCOUVER — A black bear arrived in downtown Vancouver on Monday after hitching a ride in a garbage bin aboard a truck. Conservation officer Alex Desjardins couldn't believe his ears when he was dispatched to Cambie Street near Georgia Street, in the heart of the city. "Initially I had a hard time believing it," said Desjardins. "The dispatcher said, 'It's not April Fools.' So there he was, near the Vancouver Post Office, searching for a bruin. "It's a yearling, probably one or two years old," said Desjardins, who tranquillized the youngster. "The driver had made a pickup on the North Shore, and he came downtown for another pickup."
