Bears are ubiquitous outside of urban areas in most of North America. I have lived in bear country all of my adult life and have survived black and brown bear charges while armed and unarmed. I appreciate Mr. Weingarten’s efforts to chronicle bear attacks and often gain valuable insight from his writings. If you can’t appreciate it, don’t read it.
I sure as Hell wouldn’t want to meet any of you in the woods because you’d shoot someone with your eagerness to kill a bear.
Bears are not worth a daily article about shooting bears. That’s an Obsessive Compulsive Disorder.
