Kids definitely didn’t deserve it, but they should have prepared for it.
They were in Grizzly territory.
I fault the ‘leaders’ who had ‘trained’ these kids how to survive. Bear spray? Noise to scare the bears? I just keep thinking of the old gold miners and the old-timers around So Cal who killed grizzlies because? Well, because they ate humans.
They would have laughed at bear spray and calling out. And singing to the grizzlies.
This story does not cease to amaze me.
