You must not have comprehended my post (It was carefully thought out and precise. You must give it careful though to fully understand it). When I described grizzlies, I stipulated only those “in the wild”. Captive animals in zoos and public parks are a completely different case.
There are a few other interesting facts about grizzles. In Alaska, their diet is limited to fish, mostly salmon which are easy to catch. In the Continental US, they prefer fruits and vegetable, as well as fish. They are not predators, except on absentee fathers and their bastardized children. They do not eat this prey themselves, they leave that to wolves who co-exist in their habit.
In general, grizzlies bear no malice against other animals, including humans, except those who may have tried to injure them in the past - they are very intelligent and have excellent memories.

Why, yes, they are. Look, for example at this one! He's just coming up for a little ear rub. No need to panic.
We could ban hunting in those parks, yes, but somebody is going to have to tell the bears.
LOL!!! I’ll second that one.
I don't doubt that states may be able to manage the land but I'm not sure what they mean. From Section 3 of the Enabling Act: "That the people inhabiting said proposed State do agree and declare that they forever disclaim all right and title to the unappropriated public lands lying within the boundaries thereof; and to all lands lying within said limits owned or held by any Indian or Indian tribes; and that until the title thereto shall have been extinguished by the United States, the same shall be and remain subject to the disposition of the United States, and said Indian lands shall remain under the absolute jurisdiction and control of the Congress of the United States..."
So you would do away with all national parks?

Apparently recent events haven’t taught you much.
First, why does Fedzilla need to own so much land, more than 80% of the states of Utah and Nevada, for example.
Second, given the heavy-handed behavior of the Fedzilla JBTs, who would even want any of them in their state?
Grizzlies are naturally curious, very intelligent, and just like a child and the grizzly in the video, keep testing the limits looking for the weak points. This particular bear is frightened by the stick and by the shouts to get away. I don’t know whether the guy taunting the bear lived or died - it could have gone either way.
Yes.
Remember your little brass dinner bells ... so that predators that eat meat like bears, wolves, and lions can find you easier.

She could hear its teeth going through my skull’: Woman who survived horrifying bear mauling .. as she pleaded for help, screaming, ‘Please, my kids need me.’
Terri Frana broke down in tears during an interview during which she revealed the moment she thought she was going to die during a bear attack ..
I would suggest a simple tactic...force redrawing of basic maps. Exclude all of these federal areas from state maps, and make the state appear as it should. Once you do that to a dozen states....especially Arizona and California...it starts to generate stupid questions even from Democrats. We could even suggest that once you have X amount of federal space...it requires a governor to run that federal property within that state....appointed by the President over each state’s federal property. This ties in military reservations, Indian property, forest property, BLM, national parks, etc....to report to that one guy. This tactic alone...might scare enough of the Democrats to drop the size of the ownership.
Welcome to Montana. Now go home.
Your comments are nuttier than a rat turd in a pistachio factory.
I am very familiar with the USGS Interagency Grizzly Bear Study Team (IGBST) in Bozeman, Montana, having been there to study their animals and methods. They capture grizzlies and use tem as show. They put the grizzlies in captivity and treat them as zoo animals. Consequently the grizzlies try to escape back to their natural habitat, which is the local environment, and become defensive and aggressive.
Check out this smart, dexterous grizzly as he steels a dumpster from a restaurant:

The bear in Florida was a black bear, not a grizzly. Bears in Florida are black bears and conform to different rules. They like meat and their natural prey, wild pigs and certain types of ducks, have been eradicated by hunting and culling.
Are you serious? Who taught you this asinine, stupid, juvenile hippie bunk? Stay in the city if you want to live.
