Where are the homeland security cameras when we need them??
Video of that bear going over the rail, somehow catching the ledge and saving the day would be amazing to see... And then it just goes to sleep until things work out (note to self...)
The Dan Osman of bears ... ?

Jilli- just so you know....The National Park Service in Yosemite, kills a number of bears every year. For offenses far less dramatic than slaying domestic sheep, but for slaying cheesey-poofs. No joke. I think maybe one of those catchy red bear dead bear signs should be posted at every bear execution point.

After what Ouch has done to that 46 in taco stand with years of abuse and humiliation, I see a perfect reason why that poor bear wanted to do himself

Bluering: yup...first wild bear in years and years and then shot dead within days! poor bastard should have stayed hidden in the Alps.
Scooter: yes, that is tragic as well. I suppose just different ways of doing the same...
too bad. Bears are such amazing creatures.

I thought someone was trying to compete with Ouch, and was astonished to see real photos. This is truly amazing, and even more so to have captured on film!

"After securing a net under the bridge the bear was tranquilized, fell into the net, lowered, then woke up and walked out of the net."
...and headed up into the valley where it proceeded to break into five cars, wreck four tents and eat PassThePitonsPete.
Next time let nature take it's course.
Kidding of course, glad they were able to save him :)
