What I said is that I have never had a problem with a wild bear. I did not say I had never had a bear problem. I was born and raised on a big ranch not far from Lassen National Park and there are plenty of flatlander/city slicker spoiled black bears around that ranch. They just do not last long. After they learn that there is an easier way to get food from people and people things they never stop. If they can't find the garbage cans or an open dump they will break into cabins and houses. Or better yet they will start killing calves and colts. They even used to bring the problem bears up from Yosemite to our area and turn them loose.
We didn't create the problem but we solved the problems every time we found one.
This ladies attitude about bears is clear. She walked out into the middle of them. She was plumb disney trained. The only way to solve that bear problem now is to kill the bears.
If they transplant them they will just cause someone else problems and sooner or later someone will have to kill them.
Keep up the disney work, we really don't mind taking care of the garbage, the garbage bears that is.....
And no I really do not have to live with the problems that someone else has created......

“Having never had a problem with a bear, I would say, makes you “fortunate”.

What I meant when I said “fortunate”, was being roughed up by a bear...NOT having a bear problem(in that they are in your garbage).
I realize there are people who do not practice wildlife etiquette, and Yes, shame on them....but bears don’t need humans to seek out easier ways to find food. And by you having solved some problems, it was because you were living with the problems others created.
And LOL, don’t blame Disney...because let’s not forget to include the ones who live in the mountains who too, encounter the same demise. I didn’t grow up a “flatlander”(as you say)even though I spent time in Florida. And in the mountains where I live, we understand what transplanted bears create but, I can tell you there are plenty of “mountain folk” who do the same stupid things(IF, that’s what the woman did. I wasn’t there). Needless to say...some live to tell about it, some don’t.
Flatlander is not synonymous with ‘city-slicker’. And stupidity is not a geographical location.
