Re: Zookeeper Forgets to Close Gate, Gets Mauled by Bear
They're not wild any more when they are in cages . . . right? |

Re: Zookeeper Forgets to Close Gate, Gets Mauled by Bear
The bear was surely unhappy with the forced living arrangements. I’m thinking that the bear took out his anger/aggression on the two-legged instigator |

Re: Zookeeper Forgets to Close Gate, Gets Mauled by Bear
I once encountered a bear in the woods. We had climbed a ridge from opposite sides and reached the summit at the same moment, about 6 feet apart. The bear was so startled that it jumped and then beat a fast retreat back down the slope. I just stood there with my mouth open. That was my lucky day. |

Re: Zookeeper Forgets to Close Gate, Gets Mauled by Bear
He probably could have just walked out if he had stayed calm. The bear wasnt interested in him and zoo animals are sick of people in general...and they are not hungry(assuming its a proper zoo). It's the sudden movement from the side that triggers automatic attack/defence response for wild animals. My previous house cat did the same thing. He was calm and purred nicely, until he saw my hand coming from the corner of his eye...then...instant pounce and mauling. |

Re: Zookeeper Forgets to Close Gate, Gets Mauled by Bear
This should be the OSHA video of why you don’t go to work with your head up your ass especially doing stuff like this.
