Yes, and not just polar bears. As animals' natural habitat is destroyed then they have to go somewhere else looking for food. They also know that there are easy sources - instead of chasing after prey in the wild they can go and knock over a garbage bin which, in most American towns, will provide a large amount of waste food!
