A crowd had gathered at the day care by the time Welch arrived, he said, and as he approached, one young man hopped over the fence into the yard. The bear charged, and the man hopped out, then started walking along the fence closer to the bear.

I'd have been tempted to shoot this jerk, too.


When trooper Bill Welch responded to an aggressive bear call from the Girdwood Volunteer Fire Department about 10 p.m., he found the culprit in the fenced-in yard at Little Bears Playhouse day care, sitting on a slide.

Sounds like a very appropriate place for the bear to me ....... *grins*

Sorry to hear about your bear. Glad no humans were hurt. I still haven't seen the post-office cat, but fed the squirrel peanuts this morning while I had my first cup of java.
