Grizzly Man

Have you seen this yet? Just watched this documentary of Timothy Treadwell, the guy who lived amongst the Grizzlies for 13 summers, then was killed by one.

Wow.

I'm surprised he lived as long as he did, with all the antagonizing and scolding and baby-talking he did to these animals. I almost couldn't finish watching it because the guy is seriously annoying! All the people that talked about and knew him were complete freaks as well, I think. I'm a democrat, liberal, all that good stuff, but I am not a tree-hugging-non-shaving-granola-eating hippie. I have no problem with them, but I'm also not going to feel sorry for anyone who gets killed simply because they are utterly stupid and underestimate the instincts of an animal in the wild. Period.

I totally understand loving animals, wanting to protect animals, but this guy thought he was part of the grizzlies family, and sadly, one killed and ate him anyway.

He brought along a woman, his girlfriend supposedly, *eyeroll* (if you have seen this, you'll know why I *roll eyes*) who was afraid of bears.

Coincidence that he lasted 12 summers by himself, but when he brings the smell of fear, they are both killed? I think not. Or maybe she was "taking Carrie to the prom."

There is some good footage of bears and foxes, if you can stand listening to this fool talk about and to the bears as if he is a four year old.
