rangers by and large do not know how to manage their own ****!

The bear found someone in his bathroom after dark, I'm sure you know

the feeling of having someone in your space at a time you didn't allow
then to be there. Wouldn't you try to get rid of someone in a
situation like that? Well bears can't negotiate so they just smack,
plus the whole claws and teeth thing.

Bears and people don't mix - period! If park rangers had any sense, they
would know that and do something about it on a permanent basis. Simply just
moving the bears around doesn't work. If and when more people use the hiking
trails it will become increasingly evident.


More hikers = better fed bears. Win-win, I say.
