Grizzly bear injuries 2 hikers in Yellowstone
Updated 7:28 am, Friday, August 16, 2013


YELLOWSTONE NATIONAL PARK, Wyo. (AP) — The National Park Service says a
grizzly bear charged a group of hikers in Yellowstone National Park,
leaving two people injured, including one person who suffered bite and
claw wounds.

Four people had hiked a few miles down a trail southwest of Canyon
Village when they spotted a young grizzly bear around 11:30 Thursday
morning. A sow grizzly appeared nearby and charged them.

Two of the hikers were able to use their bear spray and the sow and cub
left. The encounter lasted about a minute.

All four were able to hike out to the trailhead themselves. One person
was treated at the scene, while the other with the bite and claw
injuries was taken to a hospital.

All four have asked that their identities not be released.

Hike somewhere else, morons, and stop intruding on the bears' little bit
of remaining space.

How would you feel if the bear was at your house?

We don't have bears or coyotes wandering around here, although there
have been a couple of people reporting "small bears" in the woods around
their houses...but no verification.

Oh, and out at the national park, the people were in the bears' house.

On our hikes near the Shenandoah, we encounter all sorts of critters,
and have seen what may be bears (they tend to stay off the trails), and
there have even been reports of mountain lions (again, unverified), but
there is no question there are packs of feral dogs out there, which is
why we carry sidearms.

Wow, Maryland doesn't have feral pigs OR coyotes! I wonder how they know
to stay out of that particular state?

I live in bear country. People that live out here have no problems
with bears, wolves and coyotes. The weekend citidiots are another
story. They are a bigger problem than all the animals. Darwin's
solution is the best.

"Here" means my little neighborhood, moron. I haven't seen any wild pigs
or coyotes in my yard or on my street in the years we have lived here.

I would not be surprised if you get coyotes. They are working their
way into suburban areas all over the country.
The same with bears.
I guess the question is how you would handle it.

Oh, and out at the national park, the people were in the bears' house.

I have seen bears hiking. We just went the other way.

So you are OK shooting dogs. I figured you had some blood lust if we
dug deep enough.


I wouldn't shoot feral dogs out there unless they were about to attack
us. Most critters one encounters in the wild are pleased to head the
other way, and smart humans do that, too. Feral dogs are different.

They may be around. We have had mountain lions in the area as well as deer
eating our roses and hibiscus on the front porch. The coyotes and pigs
seem to stay in the ranch lands that start a mile away. But some areas of
the Bay Area have major problems with pigs tearing up lawns and endangering
the children. 20 years ago, friend of my dad in San Mateo shot a 600# hog
in his front yard, that chased the kids into the house.

If the feral pigs and the KKK met up, they'd get in the sack and breed.

Before you call someone a moron, you should look at a map of the range
of both feral pigs and coyotes. And just because you don't see something
doesn't mean it isn't there, moron.
