Bears in a street!
This lad is looking at a sign in the forest warning him of the danger from bears.
Hi General Lighting ,
Yep bears and people are a bad mix , Bears as beautiful animals as they are are best view from a distance i think . They need space and in their habbitat which like you said is getting destroyed . Mans greed will bite man back in the ass in the shape of bear teeth if we are not careful .
I read a story of yellow stone park where at a pick nic area where bears had worked out to come to to get food . A regular occurrence but most people had the sense to back off and let the bears eat the food . Except one family with a baby , they decided to dip the babies hand in honey and thought the bear would lick it off the babies hand . Well sad tale of this story is the bear did what bears do and took the babies hand as well . Sad tale .
this is why protection of wild habbitats for animals should be protected , so they can live the way they do and not have humans getting in the way . Otherwise we have these sad stories of people being killed or injuried .
Regards
Mungo
