My bear experience is zero and that's fine with me....grin
We are located hundreds of miles east of the area in question so at this time grizzlies are not a concern what so ever. Of course we used to think the same thing about wolves but now they are in the country(very limited numbers).
Our cows Winter on a stretch of the Missouri River. And according to stories the same stretch of river where ol' Lewis and Clark got into a tangle with a prairie grizzly.
Times changed and now the same country doesn't have enough 'room' for grizzlies. It's just the way it is.
Of course my 'Californiafied' aunt and uncle probably think it would be fine but in reality it would be a mess. Of course they don't think about the consequences and obviously wouldn't have to deal with it so no big deal to them.
Couple years ago we had way too many whitetail deer. Aunt and uncle commented that 'too bad you don't have any wolves'.
I almost punched the dumb [bleep] right in his wormy little face.
Haven't got a Christmas present since.....grin!
