Pet dog? Cat? Maybe a goldfish? Not for naturalist Casey Anderson, who adopted a grizzly bear cub seven years ago after the furry one-month-old was found orphaned in an overpopulated wildlife park. Anderson named his new pet Brutus, and the two have been inseparable ever since — together, they've set out on a yearlong mission to chronicle the lives of Yellowstone's vulnerable grizzly bears. The pair star in the National Geographic special “Expedition Grizzly featuring Casey Anderson,” airing Sunday, May 3 at p.m. ET/PT.

Well when a man has a pet Grizzly he can be sure that the bear will be well fed.

Yes, getting eaten alive does tend to disturb one...for a little while. It disturbs the dessert in the next sleeping bag a little longer.

Cockatoos are so noisy and dangerous. My mother had them. After getting attacked, she got rid of them.

T. Treadwell, IMHO, was disturbed. Yes, he was VERY disturbed by a bear. (IMHO, the bear was NOT disturbed)

a guy in the documentary that knew him speculated that the bears had left him alone for so long because they thought he was “nuts”.
