There’s a bit more in the article. The kid got a couple more licks in, so did the bear.
He’s been treated and sent home (kid, not bear) so it’s a good ending.
Except for the bear. :dubious:
Way to go! Bear knuckle boxing! That is a bad-ass kid!
I would’ve been bear breakfast.
What the story failed to mention was that the kid was naked during his altercation with the bear… and everyone knows it’s better to to run with a bear behind.
Ironically, the boy had been sent on the expedition for a string of run-ins with animals; he previously had been caught tickling deer, giving chipmunks noogies and scaring fish by smooshing his head up against the aquarium glass.
