That bear looks like he got into Sprock's brownie stash.
Nice shot even if he was 'set up'. :-)

The bear had a bad trip because the dosers neglected to hook him up with any Pink Floyd or Yes Fragile. You'd be bummed too if somebody gave you a heavy dose-burger and didn't do proper follow up with toonage.
LARGE RACOONS ON MY PATIO !!
There were three of them, two quite large, getting into the dog and chicken food container. The two big ones bailed pretty quickly when I started raising a ruckus.
But the third one, the little one, headed straight for me. I almost had to whack him with my big ass broom. You're almost lookin' at pictures of me hunkered down over him in my body motion undies brandishing my large caliber broom.
It was close, very close......

It has been a very dry summer here in northern New Mexico which equal little to no food for the bears. Sad to see them get killed for only trying to survive. Here is another shot of the little guy...hope he makes it.

Cragman is still sticking to the story that he's done a great service for June Lake and its homeowners. Kill all the bears problem solved.

"Gesunthiet: lets be clear here, you are the dooshbag. I've seen teh rangers kill the bears in Yos, and the dooshes are those idiots who feed them, not the rangers who have to kill the bears later."
Sweet argument; compare bears and rangers in Yosemite (with 3.4 to 3.9 million visitors per year) to an idiot with a gun and a bear in June lake with a population of around 350 people.
I agree with you in part though, the people who feed bears should be fined and rangers have to remove bears in Yosemite valley.

mistook the grizz for a black.
That'd be a pretty shitty "guide" then. Aside from being furry mammals, black and brown bears look nothing alike.

Hey guys, give Cragman credit for shooting a bear instead of a neighbor !
From Today's NY Times:
In Bear Attack, Hunter Killed Hunter, Autopsy Shows
By Jim Robbins
It turns out that the hunter in Idaho who the authorities thought was killed by a wounded grizzly bear was actually shot by his young hunting companion, who was trying to kill the bear, an autopsy has revealed.
Steve Stevenson, 39, died on Sept. 16 when he was shot in the chest once by his 20-year-old hunting companion, Ty Bell, officials said. The two men, both from Winnemucca, Nev., were tracking a grizzly bear they had wounded in rugged country on the Idaho-Montana border, thinking it was a black bear, the surviving hunter said.
After they shot it, they waited for a short time for the bear to die, and then went into thick forest to find it, the survivor said.
As the two men looked for the 400-pound bear, it charged them, and both hunters raised their rifles as it came toward them, Mr. Bell recounted. “They both shot it, and it kept coming,” Mr. Stevenson’s mother, Janet Price, told the Associated Press.
Mr. Stevenson, a miner, called out to divert the bear from attacking Mr. Bell, and it turned toward him instead, Mr. Bell has said. As the bear mauled Mr. Stevenson, Mr. Bell recounted, he shot it several more times and killed it.
One of those shots, however, also hit Mr. Stevenson in the chest and killed him, according to a medical examiner at the Montana State Crime Lab. In addition to the gunshot, there were bite marks on Mr. Stevenson’s leg.
The shooting of Mr. Stevenson remains under investigation by the Lincoln County attorney, and the killing of the grizzly bear, an endangered species, is still under investigation by the federal authorities.

Elcap,,, Its nearly impossible to tell the diff from a black bear and a grizz at ANY distance. "black" bears come in all colors including that of your average grizzly. Grizz are an inland version of brown bears. "
Spoken like a true city kid. I can't tell the difference between a 4Runner and a Xterra from ANY distance either. But that doesn't mean that there isn't any way to do so. I'm just an idiot.
The moral of the story kids, is that people don't get along with nature. The more out of touch people get with it, the more it will suffer.
There are bears all over where I live, a grizz just wandered downtown this past weekend. But the people here are different, so the bear lived and moved on by itself. I lived in California for years, and I understand the city folk and why they think like they do, and why you have no grizzlies, and little bratty black bears. You brought it upon yourselves due to ignorance.
But it won't change because your values won't change. So blast away until you have killed the last black (edit 4 ron) bear as well! In a few years you will be saying the same thing about the last deer, oh, they attack people and dogs with their hoofs, blah blah blah.
Just don't come up here and ruin our wilderness too.
