Black bears have killed nearly three dozen people across North America this century. This no longer worries me. My chances of being killed by a domestic dog, bees or lightning are vastly greater. My chances are 90,000 times greater of being murdered by another human being. One of the safest places a person can be is in the woods.
I hope I get over my fascination with bears very soon.
WHAT???? I can't possibly have heard that right!
