You are not far from the truth...

A former teacher of mine taught a landform geography class north of the arctic circle for graduate students. One morning, he woke up and saw a group of ravens circling over a rise some distance away. He took his 12 ga. w/slugs to investigate and found a grizzly burying a caribou in an alder thicket.

He goes back and tells his students to follow and see something they'll likely never see again. When they get to the rise, most of them want to go down and see the bear. One idiot actually has to be restrained. Unbelievably, the guy says the he is a vegetarian and the bear will sense that he means it no harm.

ALL of these students are graduates in earth sciences. They WILL be Doctorate level educators and policy makers in government. This is but one facet of education and society today. But then, what can you expect when drug-addled wood hippies sing to grizzlies and gay entertainers sleep with tigers?

Perhaps the kindest thing would be to let all who are inclined to go lay down with the lions and fufill their destiny...

Did the teacher explain to the student that the caribou killed by the grizzly was a vegetarian too?

Oh the bear will sense that he means it no harm all right. Did someone explain to him that to a carnivore vegetarian = Food? Wild animals put edible things in one of two categories. Thing you can eat with no fear and things that will put up a fight if you try to eat them.

Far better to be a carnivore and have them think that you mean them harm. Just don’t corner them.
