Colorado Bear Video Goes Viral, Featured By Stephen Colbert

DENVER (CBS4) - It was the video seen around the world, and then Steven Colbert had fun with it on the Late Show.

The surveillance video shows a bear trying to break into a dumpster outside of a marijuana dispensary. When the bear can't easily get inside, it starts backing the dumpster out of it's enclosure.

Colbert called it a "bearijuana thief" and then joked that the bear might have been putting the dumpster out by the curb for pick up.
