"There are countless horrible things happening all over the world and horrible people prospering, but we must never allow them to disturb our equanimity or deflect us from our sacred duty to sabotage and annoy them whenever possible." -Auberon Waugh

If for any reason you're skeptical that a grizzly bear can kill you with one swipe of its paw...
There are black bears around where I live. Generally they are not aggressive towards humans, if you keep your distance and avoid provoking them. Still, I don't go hiking in back country without a 1911.
Having seen grizzlies in the wild -- from a safe distance -- I've never doubted their position at the top of the food chain.
ReplyDeleteMonstrous big beasts, aren't they?
ReplyDeleteYikes!
ReplyDeleteI dunno, I think that woman just has small hands.
ReplyDeleteYes, they are big, Paco.
ReplyDeleteAnd I'm told that Kodiak bears (related to grizzlies) are even bigger. Them I don't need to see, thankyouverymuch.

ReplyDeleteRemember: forest fires prevent bears.
ReplyDeleteYes, but they also prevent houses built in the woods. I'll take the bears and keep the house.
