In the small town of Timberline, a 900-pound (400 kg) grizzly bear named Boog enjoys a captive but luxurious existence and spends his days as the star attraction of the town's nature show, while at night living in the garage of park ranger Beth, who has raised Boog since he was a cub. One day, the cold-hearted hunting fanatic Shaw drives into Timberline with a mule deer named Elliot strapped to the hood of his truck, who is missing an antler after Shaw purposefully ran him over. When Boog meets him, Elliot begs Boog to cut him free before he gets mounted on a wall and Boog does so. Due to Boog casually calling him "buddy" as he leaves, Elliot becomes convinced that they are now friends. Later that night, Elliot finds Boog sleeping comfortably in the garage, telling Boog to be "free" from his garage captivity and introducing him to sweet temptations he has never known. When Boog becomes sick from eating too many candy bars, events quickly spiral out of control, as the two raid a convenience store. Elliot escapes before Boog is caught by Beth's friend Gordy, the local sheriff in town.
