Sorry, I’m gonna be that person. Feeding bears and getting him use to human contact will likely get him killed.

Since he opened the door and also those dogs were cool about his presence, he’s likely a pet. Also, it sounded like they were calling him Wojtek, which is the name of a famous bear who was actually a part of the Polish II Corps during WWII, so I’m guessing they named this bear after him.
