Bear attack

http://news.yahoo.com/us-hiker-killed-grizzly-bear-attack-094922414.html#

There's no place like home.... There's no place like home....  First bear attack of the year but I think bison are up on the tourists 5-0.  Bear attack season is really not even in full swing yet.

There are ways to avoid bears but it does sometimes happen that you just "jump" a bear.  It'll do 1 of 2 things at that point and if its a sow with cubs, the two choices are narrowed down to 1...... and then you get what we have here.

"The man was from Montana and was a long-term seasonal employee of Medcor, a company that runs three health clinics in the Wyoming park."

Well he definitely wasn't a newbie and talk about irony, poor guy.

Note to self
Don't swim with sharks and don't hike with grizzly bears!!!!!!
