My view is this: we cannot know what the bear perceived because we are not bears and are not inside this bear's head. Therefore we cannot assume to know why this bear did what it did. it could have...

just kidding about only being wrong once or twice that is. i've been wrong, of course. but seriously, this has gotten way out of hand. i'm just of a different opinion than most of you. that's it....
so is that why you keep posting...?
and no, i just like to defend myself. i've been wrong once or twice... ;) just kidding.
funny!
are you sleep walking or something? :-?
sleep tight. :)
Yeah... and THIS is a thread ABOUT A GRIZZLY ATTACK. :rolleyes: Don't like it, have it moved or something.
Hiking the AT doesn't make you more knowledgeable about anything other than hiking your own hike on the AT, and it certainly doesn't make you more knowledgeable than anyone about grizzlies, since...
Seriously though, you guys are fun! Enjoy sitting in a cozy circle nodding your heads at one another and agreeing. Kumbayah. Sorry I have an alternate viewpoint that I have supported... It's like...
almost as hilarious as your post count! :eek::eek::eek:
okie doke! just keep failing to make a point. :D
Can you read? I said one point does not a line make. Do you know what that means? It means... one instance does not indicate a trend. One murder does not mean a spree. Etc etc etc. Get it?
So I...
Go for it - no one's stopping you. ;)
Could you provide something that proves that the female there in 2008 had been there multiple times and had also attacked "for fun?" What I read was that she had been there once and was captured...
So you think that a woman whose having her arm chewed off in the middle of the night in the dark will have the ability to aim a gun at a grizzly well enough that she will kill it and not simply miss...
Uh, he's not "mine." Just someone who probably knows more about bears than you do. Sorry.
That's fine - it is going to be killed and it is going to be studied. Most everyone here will get what...
How many bears have been PROVEN to have hunted humans simply for fun, completely and totally absent of even the possibility of the bear hunting for hunger or responding to a perceived threat, real or...
Somehow I doubt the woman who was having her arm chewed off would have had the ability to grab a gun and shoot and, in such close proximity to other campers, she probably would have been more likely...
No, the whole "black bear mom will protect her cubs" is a fallacy. Black bears are very likely to run away and I've read multiple instances of cubs being taken from mom bears without the mom...
And I responded by stating that even if she wasn't starving, it wouldn't be a huge stretch to think that a mother bear would be on the lookout for food almost all the time... which I still stand by....
Jeeze, you are making lots of mistakes! FYP again. :)
Diggerlit, that would sort of be clever if it made any sense. Sorry though, no luck. :(
If you don't want to accept or even read the passage and have completely ruled out its validity, so be it - that's you're perogative. For me, a professor of wildlife conservation saying that a mother...
Buzzed? I wish. Not on a work night though. :(
Then I guess bulldog should have let the thread go about three pages ago, when he posted a nice long thread of bananas...?
:rolleyes:
nope. and unless you or anyone else on this thread has been attacked by a grizzly bear or had a close personal encounter with a griz, i don't see your point. :)
FYP! :sun
