Carla;

I remember the neighbor couple who I sometimes boarded with and consider as
one of my sets of surrogate parents went to visit their son in Alaska and
while fishing Bill, the Dad came crashing out of the brush directly behind
my best friend Dan, thier son Dan to find himself staring down the barrel of
a pistol. Bill thought it was overreacting, but a cousin of mine and the
rest of the crew on the landing in another part of Alaska watched
helplesssly as a Sow Grizzly killed two fallers who were unaware that she
and her cubs had wandered around to opposite sides of them while they were
running their saws and when the saws shut off the cubs became alarmed and
started bellowing for Mom who immediately jumped to the conclusion that
these two humans had to be eliminated. No, your bears aren't very shy.
