By the title I though a polar bear and a Labrador got into a fight.

Getting dragged off by a polar bear. I’m surprised he survived.

“part of a Sierra Club hiking trip to the remote park. “
No pity.
Especially they built an electric fence and destroyed pristine cryptobiotic arctic soil diversity.

This is what can happen when you voluntarily give up your spot at the top of the food chain.

Timothy Treadwell and his girlfriend at the time, Amy Huguenard, also thought Nature was all Bambi and Thumper.

The Sierra Club is worried about not enough polar bears. The polar bears are worried about not enough Sierra Club hikers.

Are they sure it was a bear? Perhaps this was an Inuit bear guard, dressed in a bear suit, angry that he wasn’t hired! (just joking here — no flames, please)
To: george76
Cuz U.S. citizens can’t bring their handguns to Canada.

When the bear realized the guy was a lawyer it terminated the attack. It's a predator professional courtesy.

Perhaps this was an Inuit bear guard, dressed in a bear suit I was thinking that out behind the bear guard's house is where you find the cages of all the trained attack bears.

...warm dinner in a wrapper (a burrito :), how convenient!"
stupid tree-hugger; you place..put yourself in prime polar bear country,
in the open without any real protection during their fattening phase just
before the 7 month hibernation period.

They are Sierra Clubbers. There’s not enough functioning intelligence there to determine of water is wet.
