Are they sure it wasn't one of those Speckled Burmese Bears that mauls a woman every few minutes on KSFO?

as he fired 11 times with a semi-automatic handgun before the animal fell, 12 feet away. “Tell me it wasn't a 9mm.
Don't they usually advise that, if you going to carry a handgun in bear country, it be a minimum of 44 mag. or more?

I remember seeing this guy (I think it was him) on film a couple of years ago and being amazed at his ability to get right up close to bears.
Even tho he was killed, I still am amazed at his ability. It does teach a lesson that no matter how well you deal with them it can't change the fact that they are meat eaters and you are meat.

So our bear expert was self-taught. Well, the bear was well trained too. The bear left the campsite cleaner than he found it.

Our masters require that we all go into the bears territory unarmed. This took place in "Katmai National Park and Preserve" according to the article. Unless I am mistaken its a FedGov law that there are NO GUNS ALLOWED in NATIONAL PARKS. (Obviously this does not apply to our masters, agents and employees of FedGov.)
Some laws are so stupid they just have to be disobeyed. Sounds like the rangers run around w/ 9mm handguns, which ain't to smart either.
