mauling outside yellowstone

Recommended Posts

Reading the story it sounds like predation, but I think the way she went about it was a little different. If it was predation it would probably be considered "surplus kill" like what wolves do, but bears and cats don't normally do this. I think she was pissed off.

What pissed her off to go into a camp ground? Didn't sound like the bear was provoked to me.

Who knows maybe she had been sprayed w/ pepper spray one too many times. I just don't think it was predation, IMO.

Just found out they used the dead campers tent as bait to catch the bear. Sounds like predation. I still wonder why she went from tent to tent and got some/ left others.
