CAMPING : Bears

Hey Everone,

Not trying to frighten anyone .. Just an " FYI ".. be careful!

1 Dead, 2 Hurt in Bear Attack at Mont. Campground

I generally carry a " Fishing & Hunting License ", with all of the required equipment, whenever possible !

We are visitors in the habitat of animals. To put this experience in perspective, how many die in MVA in a day?

Outside of solid four wall homes, campers have to be aware of settings, our carbon footprint, and others.

WOW, terrifying experience for all in the campground.

 

Well, it appeared that most of the people ran in panick & confusion, which might have agitated the attacking Bears... ?

In the " WILD ", I'm genetically programed, to being a " Hunter / Gatherer ", instead of the " Prey " !

I can't say for sure who would win in a " Bear Fight " .., me or the Bear ?
But, there would be a " Fight " !

L.M.

 

I commented in the Alaska Question thread, that the bears in Yellowstone are much more dangerous for the very reason that they are accustomed to human contact.

It's also the reason, when I took the picture, that I was standing next to a park ranger with a very big gun.
