Bear kills militants
BBC ^ | 12:28 GMT, Tuesday, 3 November 2009 | Altaf Hussain

A bear killed two militants after discovering them in its den in Indian-administered Kashmir, police say.

Two other militants escaped, one of them badly wounded, after the attack in Kulgam district, south of Srinagar.

The militants had assault rifles but were taken by surprise - police found the remains of pudding they had made to eat when the bear attacked.

The militants had made their hideout in a cave which was actually the bear's den, said police officer Farooq Ahmed.

The dead have been identified as Mohammad Amin alias Qaiser, and Bashir Ahmed alias Saifullah. News of the attack emerged when their injured comrade went to a nearby village for treatment.

The bears estimate it will take at least two weeks to get all of the stink out of their cave.

Yeah! Go bear!

Hey, I have a brain storm - why not parachute drop grizzly bears into northern Pakistan? The bears would go looking for caves for winter hibernation and drive all the militants out into the open.

Naw! It makes too much sense and might work.

Three years ago, residents of Mandora village near the southern town of Tral, beat a black bear to death which had strayed into the village.

Payback is a bear or something .

Probably a good conservative bear.

I wonder if being transformed into bear feces is ritually unclean for a Moslem?
