"There's nothing more terrifying than a mother Black Bear after her cubs were approached by two innocent woodland
travellers. Maybe that and Boy George." - Abraham Lincon, 1884
Too true, Abe, too true. In fact, even Boy George gets scared of Black Bears. Yet the fact is, many people don't

those people are communists.
"But there's been less than 2 recorded Black Bear related deaths in twenty years!"
some may say. But the key word in that statement is RECORDED. How can a death be recorded if THERE'S NO BODY LEFT TO RECORD
IT? Black Bears are in fact a threat. They will find you. And they will kill you.
But how can I stay safe?
