YES! I AGREE! I wouldn't reccommend coming between a cub and his mommy - or put my camp in the middle of a bear trail where a mean old bear almost ready to hibernate can mistake you and and your girlfriend for an easy meal.
I am appalled however at most of the attitudes towards these magnificent creatures! Air horns, bear spray, rocks and .44 magnums! Don't you know that the air horns hurt their cute little ears and the bear spray hurts their cute little eyes and rocks hurt their feelings! And .44 magnums hurt their brains, hearts, lungs, kidneys, pancreases, intestines, paws, skulls, throats, and noses! How mean! These are my friends!
Zigga - You threw rocks at my friend! His name is "Little Joe" - and oh he is just a wonderful friend! He was just curious and he probably just wanted to see who you were! I saw you through the bushes and I almost came out to "protect" him from you! What a terrible day that was!
Let me warn all of you! I am here to protect these defenseless creatures! I have my video camera and a very shrill voice when riled! I will cuss and yell at you if you so much as look at these magnificent creatures cross-eyed! How dare you! How dare you throw rocks at my friend Zigga! Shame on you! Shame on you Zigga!
Sincerely yours,
Timothy Treadwell
