there is a reason they are called “tourons” I’ll bet more than anything that the wolves are cutting into the griz food sources and they are just responding by expanding their food chain.

When I go hiking over in Red River Gorge, I always carry. The husband of one of my sister’s coworkers was mauled last summer, and I have seen tracks, scat, and a clawed tree while hiking there.

Many bear education campaigns focus on saving the animals themselves, part of a broader effort to recover a species once nearly wiped out by hunting and other pressures. Slogans such as a fed bear is a dead bear highlight the increased likelihood of bears becoming nuisances and getting euthanized if they get used to eating human food or garbage. I have an idea. Instead of making people feel sorry for bears how about telling people that the bears will kill and eat them and not have second thought about it? How about putting pictures around the park of corpses that have been eaten by bears?
