Vesta!! There is a big diference btween a bear and a human being. A humna being(some of us anyway) uses logic and common sense,. This mother bear was acting on instinct and protecting her little ones. She acts on natural instinct, she's hungry and and it is an easy meal for her, because she needs to feed her cubs. She doesn't know right from wrong, cause and effect.

Which is why they will charge and maim/kill your ass without blinking.  I love nature, I love animals, I don't kill things just because, but you can't tell me that no one has right to drop a charging bear if it means the difference between it or them.

Quote
And bears are not maneating viscious animals. 

Neither are sharks (so I've been told), but that doesn't stop them from killing people every year.

If it was me, I damned sure wouldn't be refilling the birdfeeders at night.  It'd be in the daytime, and I'd probably have my Python on my hip.

'Course, we don't have bears around here.  We do have deer in the neighborhood that are seen from time to time.

Yeah, pretty much.  If the bears are waking up, then it's best to not be at a disadvantage with no light so neither of you surprise one another.  And it wouldn't hurt to have something on you to drop a large, charging animal if necessary.

We have foxes, tons of them, and they can be a bit of a pain - especially after the ducklings are hatched.

Bears on a level ground can get up to 30 mph.  no problem catching someone on a bicycle or even a Moped.

That explains why the Bear Cavalry don't ride mopeds...

I can equate an angry bear with human monsters, I can equate a laid back so called tame bear with human Monsters.  Both act on impulse, and instinct.     To me bears and human Monsters are just gigantic Pit Bulls.

The man that raised tame bears for the movies for 40 years died when a well tamed bear he had raised from a cub for no reason went off on him.     Goggle bear attacks against humans and see just how horrific it can be.

There is a small amusement park up north that for at least 80 years has drawn in customers with their bear act.  There are perhaps 5-6 that are trained to ride bicycles and even eat icecream from a trainers mouth.

A good friend of mine was born and raised about a mile from the Park and tells of 3-4 times a year when some of the bears got loose in the spring and the police called everyone in the area to not let the kids outside ----Yippie, another day home from school.
