He can claim high cheekbones and a right to a traditional pet.
“Never ever take the king’s bears. Oh my!”
Or the King’s Carrots.
C’mon now, that is bearly a crime
—”bearly a crime”
Did the barely legal bears lie about their status?
” from a den inside a tree that had fallen across an access road to a work site,”
How many tranquilizers did that bear have to be on to act in such a docile manner? Betty was lucky he didnt gobble her fingers too.
This looks like something retired actress Tippi Hedren would have done around 1965. Tippi was know to own full sized Lions. The Lions would walk freely inside her home. They would also share her bed if they felt like it that day.
OK, now we are getting somewhere. In California cutting up a tree that has fallen across an access road to your work site without a permit is a serious crime.
My wife was driving home one day and there was a traffic problem. Someone had run over a squirrel, and it was flopping around in the road and people were stopped gawking at it. My wife grabbed the Nomex hood that was in my helmet in my firefighting gear in the trunk. While people were screaming at her to stay away from it because it was dangerous and probably had rabies she calmly walked over to it, wrapped it in the fabric, picked it up and put it in the passenger seat and drove it home.
When she got home she called the “wilderness vet” and told them that she had an injured squirrel. They said that the only option was to have them put it down. When she replied that she thought that it should have a chance to recover the person she was talking to went off the rails. They started yelling at her and told her that harboring an injured squirrel was “serious crime” and that she needed to bring it to them so that they could put it down. She hung up the phone as they were telling her that she faced fines and jail time.
This started a months long adventure where we rehabilitated the squirrel and eventually let it go. It lived in the tall firs behind our house for years until it was probably eaten by a coyote, owl, or cat. It never was as fast as a squirrel without a medical history and was easy to identify because it was very vocal and it’s tail never recovered.
What an idiot.
Probably much less than the drugs that it takes to get Biden to look like he is still with it. Ask Ron Howard's little brother...
But no... bears are bears and if your pet bear eats Betty White or a little kid, a lot of people are going to frown on it. If your pit bull did the same thing you probably would not be facing as much criticism.
What did you say that fur? What bearing does it have on this discussion? Honestly, I think we’re polar opposites. I hate to say it, but I fear you face a grizzly fate.
A guy I had known was famous for wrestling Victor the beat at a McCormick Place show. He (the guy) was huge and notoriously strong.
He said Victor was crazy strong but worse than that was his killer bad breath! Yes, he lost the match.
I had read that the bear’s teeth and claws were removed.

I miss Goldilocks.
His defense should have been “but I thought they were lost cubscouts and so tried to rescue them”.
Yes, bear wrestling, the sport of kings. The only problem is that you need a bear that grew up with a twin so that it learned early that biting and being bitten is painful. Otherwise, you do need a toothless, clawless bear with gingivitis to be your sparring partner.

No feeding the bears.
