Bear was hungry, serendipity presented the menu option of sedentary long pig. Chow time!"This attack appears to be predatory in nature," Tucker said. "This situation is extremely unusual, not the norm."
Bear attacks often involve "some nexus to food," Tucker said, which their investigation will explore. Though "nothing jumped out at us as being obvious of why this occurred,"
Of course its not but, it gets hard to feel badly for people who end up victims because they refuse to prepare. I know the area this happened. I would NOT be there unarmed. He chose to not be.Getting eaten alive, not really that funny
RIP
We've really got to get rid of that bear arming amendment.Black Bears Matter
My first time deep in Mexico I was inches from being bitten in the face by one of those. I was with some much older kids walking along the beach at night. Of course no one had a light. So dark we could see little. Hear the sound of a rattler. Back then I had yet to run into one and had no idea what the buzzing sound was. The older kids I was with must have never been near one either as all of us were following the sound, trying to figure out what the hell it was as it was moving away from us fairly fast. As we kept searching we got to where it sounded like we were on top of it and I got down on my knees trying to see what the hell was in the sand. I finally got close enough to recognize a sidewinder. Was not a very large one but if it had bitten a 10 year old kid in the face as far as we were from nearest medical? I probably would not have lived to see my 11th birthday. Let me tell you I NEVER forgot that sound though.I'd be about as pissed at dying from a bear attack in the desert as I would dying of a rattlesnake bite on the beach.
First and only times I heard rattlesnakes was at tourist attractions where my parents stopped on family weekend days out and they have a big cage of rattlers they stirred up into rattling so that visitors could learn what they sounded like. Insteresting and instructive for kids. Rattle snakes are the most common animal cause of death in a few states. I've seen them in the wild but didn't disturb them enough for them to rattle. Also once saw a huge gopher snake pretending to be a rattlesnake, vibrating his tail rapidly against dry leaves. Didn't sound much like a rattler, but in between his making a threatening noise with his tail, not trying to escape, and coiling and pretending to strike just like a poisonous snake, it caused my dog to just bark and keep her distance.My first time deep in Mexico I was inches from being bitten in the face by one of those.

Rest of my days living down that way I knew that sound the second I heard it. It was VERY strange to run up on one that close to the damn ocean like that.
Especially honey dipped fried chickenThis is why I never eat fried chicken in the woods.
