Maybe the clan that the bear came from didn't like Clan MacRosnau or its tartan. Some ancestral grudge thing.
Anyway, another strategy for next time. Get a cat, instead of a lame ass dog.

And exactly where are these woods to which you refer, wherein purple donkeys may be seen? Does RokJox also keep his wolves there, perchance?
Edit: OK, purple mountains as poetic licence. I don't see nuttin' about purple quadrupeds.

For amber waves of grain,
For purple mountain majesties

That bear looks like he has lost more than the little turtleneck.
Yes, it was a traumatic bris, sadly performed during an earthquake.

Who knows, maybe.
But I've dealt with endless bear encounters over 20 years in Tahoe.
Two adults in house upon returning, messy!
Two cubs in kitchen in middle of night.
Big Big Big bear in kitchen in middle of day, house right on golf course in Kings Beach.
And on and on and on and on and on....
None ever died due to my action or inaction.
What did "encourage" bears from bad behavior was an anode - cathode setup on the sliding glass door that was taken off the tracks by the bears, and the bear-trash-box that had been under continual attack.
No permanent damage but they got the message!
Through all of it Ann Bryant of the Bear League has been as useful as a wooden leg with a kick-stand.

I agree with Piton Ron...^
Ron A., I like you because.. you are sweet to dogs..
But why in the Sam Hill -are you so into putting up sick pictures..I wish you would take it down..
besides, wasn't that guy in a tent when he was mauled.....I bet most people who are killed/mauled by bears -are outside camping...
I'm sorry, i agree with Leah...
Edit: Ron, thank you!!!....
edit:..Locker, are you coming to the Wedding?..If you are, I'm going to say hi..then.. i'm going to punch you in the shoulder ...heehe...so.. watch out..(-;

Not really Fort-tool
Since it's a well known fact that such a tool as yourself who projects nothing but such bullsh'it is the one who actually engages in such behavior himself.

The rascally bear had a thing for my tent. I have never had food in my tent. But I think I chose a place he liked to hang out. So, he would go to other areas and bring back debris (plates, packages, etc) and lean against my tent to lick them (or whatever). He came back a few times and finally the ranger told me to tear the tent down and sleep in the rented SUV I had.
See- rangers in Yosemite sometimes condone sleeping IN vehicles!
It was a restless night as I imagined looking at the window to see the little devil peering inside.
Ew.

Oh Werner, Fort,
get out of the gutter.
Cragman is not that kind of animal lover.
He's just giving it a bear hug so that he can inhale the bear's spirit from its last breath.
He will now assume a new indian name,....
