Bruin buddy [Man has pet GRIZZLY BEAR]
PMSNBC ^ | Not given | Not given

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.

I meant the Grizzly Man movie about that crazy activist that thought he was saving the bears. They did some documentary on this guy who went into the Alakan wilderness with his girlfriend. She got creeped out and left, but he stayed by himself late into the season video-recording his dangerous encouters with the bears. They ended up eating him.

Watch it again.

She stuck around and met the same fate as Treadwell.

unbelievable. That guy has a pretty solid nomination for a darwin award going. The girl is too skinny though. That bear would just get a bone stuck in his throat
