Try to think of it in terms of defensive and predatory behavior mr. large predator expert.
stupid azzed asian gets tuned up while trying to take a selfie, bear gets a pass.
bear starts catching and eating humans because it's easy peasy, bear gets removed.
this has nothing to do with bears eating twinkies, mr. expert.
Who gives a flying [bleep]? Would you expect a guy that killed your daughter to be out on bond because she ran from him?
Here you go:
2 separate bear attacks, same bear. Apparently people that thought like you said GOOD BEAR, BAD PERSON for running. Let the bear go free and play.
Two months later bear kills another person.
Wildlife experts say the National Park Service was justified in killing an adult female grizzly bear this week after DNA evidence placed the sow at the sites of two fatal attacks over the summer at Yellowstone National Park.
More News From Greenwire
Brian Matayoshi, 58, of Torrance, Calif., was confirmed killed by the female bear near the Wapiti Lake Trailhead on July 6 (Land Letter, Sept. 22).
Less than two months later, on Aug. 26, hikers found the mauled body of John Wallace, 59, of Chassell, Mich., on the Mary Mountain trail roughly eight miles away from the first attack.
DNA evidence obtained from hair and scat samples taken at the scene of the August attack showed the bear was at the site of the second attack and may have scavenged Wallace's remain
The two attacks were the first grizzly-caused fatalities in Yellowstone park in 25 years.
On Sunday, Yellowstone officials euthanized the 6- to 7-year-old, 250-pound sow citing public safety concerns.
The bear, which had two cubs, was not put down after the July mauling because investigators determined the attack was caused in part by Matayoshi's evasive actions, which included running and yelling for help, both of which may have provoked the bear.
