Thanks. I know that I sounded callous in my first post, but it wasn't that I had no sympathy for the mom and children. My heart broke for them and their entire family. I didn't think I had to express it; I thought everyone assumed we here at FR have a heart. I wrote the post because I never did understand why, after such a tragic event, was a hunt on for the animal. After some knowledgable FReepers explained that bears should not attack, I understood and learned something.

"Thanks. I know that I sounded callous in my first post,"

You didn't sound callous, you sounded uninformed, but rather than offering facts, I posted in haste and offered nothing to better inform you.

I apologized for that, and will do my best to help those that are uninformed in the future.
