That would seem like a rather odd idea. Why would a bear be stored in a box, and even more so at a camping site?

I find "bear box" a pretty instructive term. More generic terms don't seem to catch the idea of protecting food from animals quite as well. The boxes were developed against bears and thus got their named. Also, from my Jack London influenced imagination, I immediately understood what we're talking about here. Thus, I'd go for "bear box=yes/no", even in areas where there are no bears. _______________________________________________ Tagging mailing list [email protected] https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging
