Spring Bears

[Silver]

Just a reminder to be careful out there. My wife's 27 year old cousin was killed by a bear over the weekend while camping with his fiancé. One might think that falling asleep in your chair by the fire would not be inherently dangerous, but I guess one never knows. It's a pretty heartbreaking deal.
We all spend a lot of time outside, so let's not take anything for granted out there.

That is a terrible tragedy, Silver. Sending heartfelt prayers for your family.

What a tragic story. It was covered in the National Post. Totally a freak event that one would not expect. So sorry for the loss to your extended family.

Sorry to hear of something so tragic happening, Silver and thanks for the warning.

That is a sad deal

Guess one never knows when it would happen but who'd ever thought that would?

 

[Traveler]

That is extremely tragic. Was it a Black Bear, maybe one that had previous human contact? I wonder if a good dog could have prevented it. Very sorry for your family's loss.

That's terrible. Sorry for the loss.

That is a tragedy that is hard to imagine happens in 2015. Prayers for the family and friends who are suffering the loss of a loved one. In my mind that seems even harder to accept than the crazy accidents which happen, when on thinks of a camping trip as relaxation in a beautiful place.

So sorry for your family's tragedy Silver. Makes one realize that shooting a few to keep them shy of man is not a bad policy.
