I’d love to see some of these brain donors go to the north woods and determine why bears sometimes live in one place and sometimes another. Now being a certified redneck mountain hick by birth, I’m sure that my uneducated observations that animals go to where the food is probably carries no weight with such esteemed Einstein level intellects such as these. However since mu observation of fact doesn’t or didn’t take a 7 figure govt. grant, I think I see why they have yet to determine the source of this environmental catastrophic.
Believe it or not, there were some parts of California that in the early 1800s were so infested with grizzly bears (e.g., Napa Valley) it was considered dangerous for humans to live there.
