Ignoring the slant of the story...

National parks are always the perfect microcosm for wildlife/human interactions.  They seem to attract large number of people that are not savvy with the outdoors/wildlife and have large numbers of animals that are habituated to humans.

I guess I am always surprised there aren't more animal attacks...

I look forward to this time each year. These heartwarming stories make me feel so good about my own experience and expertise in the woods.  :chuckle:
