Jesus. This bear attack happened in the South Fork of the Shoshone and I doubt if there are many black bears in that area. The reason being is it is loaded with Grizzly bears. So, Yes it was a Grizzly bear.

The story I saw on the news it was a sow black bear. They got to close; you could see the cubs scampering away followed shortly by mom.

Could you please provide a link.

After listening to the victims.

I didn't hear anything about a video being taken at the time of the attack.

I sure would like to see the information.

Your information is incorrect. Grizzly bear and no video. You believe every thing you see and hear on the TV news?

Watch your attitude, I just relayed what I saw on tv. That doesn't make it true by any means. Could have been a clip from another story they found in teir file.

When it comes to media reports.

One has to be very careful as they tend to use information to promote their own agenda.
