Bear attacks!
Thought that title would get your attention Smiler

Just received this by e-mail- looks like there were 5 bear maulings over the past week- 2 in Canada and 3 in U.S.

" BEARS. . . . It's been a big week for predators in the news. Bears mauled people in Manitoba, Alberta and Alaska, plus two more in Montana. New York implemented new rules to reduce bear-human conflicts. New Jersey's well-publicized attempt to control its burgeoning bear population continued to make headlines...."

Thanks, Lefty. I needed that. I leave tomorrow for a grizzly hunt in BC. Hope I don't do a Treadwell.

I would think that as long as you planning on shooting one rather than hugging it you should be fine Big Grin Have a great trip. I'm jealous.

Yea, be sure you don't stand 5 ft away and tell the bear how much you love it before you stuff it.
