Post by: arees on April 23, 2009, 07:11:06 AM: I was hoping for one closer to home. Maybe the one that was on the Redmond Ridge golf course. :)

I liked the part at the end were the reporter said they would move the bear up to the mountains "where they belong." I guess it is too much to ask a reporter to know that the bears were here first.

Post by: Smokepole on April 23, 2009, 07:24:08 AM: I love how the reporter predicts a "horrible accident". Give me a break. Maybe a school bus will hit the bear and 75 passengers and the driver will be killed in the BIG BUS FIRE OF 2009!!! Don't make me... :puke:

I live about 1/2 mile from the bear. We got coyotes, bears, rabbits, deer, and all kinds of wild animals around here. Wouldn't piss me off so bad, but I have dip*censored*s in helicopters flying over my house this morning. I'm getting so sick of the news and their panic mode. That's why I got rid of t.v.

Wish I had a spring bear tag and a bow. That would really give those weenies something to talk about. :pee:

Post by: shanevg on April 23, 2009, 01:34:13 PM: LOL, I literally drove by that trap about half an hour ago and I was thinking "WTF is there a bear trap out here for?" Well... now I know.

Post by: washelkhntr on April 23, 2009, 10:52:36 PM: Funny thing to me about all of this is, about two weeks ago I seen him in the same spot. Dumb ass drivers didnt even notice him. He has been there for awhile now, but all of a sudden it is a "life threating issue to motorists."

I hope he gives them the slip and comes back to haunt thier dreams :)

Post by: Buckshot Bill on April 23, 2009, 11:38:49 PM: Media has to exagerate this! :rolleyes: Moving him to the mountains is going to help? :dunno: So he gets hit up on Hwy. 2 is any better? Like a deer, dog or some other animal couldn't cause an accident on the freeway. How many deer and other animals are drilled on the roads? Dumbchit boyfriend of that girl almost caused a major accident from slamming his breaks on instead of paying attention of what was ahead or around him and getting out of the way without swerving too hard. If the bear has been there for years and hasn't been a problem before then leave him alone and let him go about his own business. I thought he was a good side show when driving through there.

Post by: jeepasaurusrex on April 24, 2009, 06:10:09 AM: I live just south of there and have been seeing that same bear for awhile. He is smart and has learned the ways of the freeway. The media isn't giving him enough credit.

Post by: billythekidrock on April 24, 2009, 06:21:59 AM: Well he tripped the trap......they reset it and now he is going for a ride.

Title: Re: Here is an easy Bear
Post by: Smokepole on April 24, 2009, 07:42:18 AM: More choppers last night, but now it's quiet. Maybe they caught him.
