Woman, 54, severely injured after being mauled by caged BEAR she was trying to pet at wildlife center. Here is the link. But what can you say? Who in any state of mind sticks their arm in a cage with a 400 pound bear? This would be like going to your local zoo and attempting to pet a panther or cougar through the 4x4 inch cage gaps.

I first always ask the Bears up here if they mind if I pet ‘em! If they say it is okay, I do. So far so good.......

Also on the property are 2 other black bears, a panther, a gator and several birds.

Gives her something to look forward to as she's healing up. Her next visit should be great.

I read the story and am confused was the idio..........er, victim 50 or 54, or did the ordeal age her four years on the spot?

“Did she offer the bear a coca cola?


Do they have polar bears in Florida zoos?

Plant flowers and vegetables that bear crops above ground during the light, or waxing, of the moon: from the day the Moon is new to the day it is full.

Plant flowering bulbs and vegetables that bear crops below ground during the dark, or waning, of the Moon: from the day after it is full to the day before is is new again.

I’m a retired zookeeper. This happens more often than you’d think, but people usually get away with minor injuries. Except for that idiot woman who tried to pet a wolf where I used to work. The wolf had to be shot so they could get her arm out of it’s mouth.

Maybe the bear was nearsighted and thought the lady was offering him a “12 Inch Subway” meatball sandwich?
