The War On Bears begins!

Oh yeah, I have a pool and a fenced in backyard. They’ll never find us there! Who’s up for stealin’ some pic-a-nic baskets?

Ahh, old news. I beat Warbears weeks ago.

I don’t know why these Dopers are panicking. We’re going after the Grizzly bears, Kodiak bears and Black bears first. We’ll worry about the swampbears and chaoticbears after that.

Don’t forget the Koalas. Buggers are stoned most of the time, anyways - just to keep 'em quiet, yanno. Otherwise they’d be rampaging through the streets of Austrailia.

Is this petition legal, or is it bearly legal?

Are you going to bear up under the strain, or bear down and get busy?

I’m with you, swampbear, I’ll even bring the salmon for the barbeque. The petition scares me, I am one with the bears, as you can see from my birthmark http://i33.photobucket.com/albums/d79/kaiwik/beartattoo.jpg

I’m not too concerned about the other bears, but the Kodiak Brownie is my totem. Blackies, on the other hand, truly will eat a person just for grins!

Cool tattoo kaiwik!

Cold beer, salmon, bears and a pool. Could life get any better. :smiley:

Oh, and the koalas, yeah, they can go.

Thanks swampbear, someday I’ll post the story which gave me the impetus to acquire that particular tat! Kodiak bears are friendly bears, inquisitive bears. The only people who need to fear Kodiak bears are the insane and hunters, oft times one and the same!

kawiak, was it you who posted a story I’d read about some idiot who got into a slapping match with a Kodiak bear?

Oh, and salmon! mmmmmmmmm!

Ack! Sorry for butchering your name, Kaiwik!

You can’t domesticate a Godless killing-machine.

You, bouv, we will save for a special feast when we take over the world.

Why not? Didn’t we domesticate cats?

<d&r>

hehehe, no worries, Otakuloki, I have certainly been called worse! Yes, that was a report from the village I lived in. A kid I have know since he was in diapers, who is now 20’ish, inebriated and walking home from partying all night encountered a bear. I have since learned that the kid (Jake) not only slapped the bear, but slapped it repeatedly before the bear said “WTF?” and smacked Jake down. Just one swipe, and then the bear ambled off to sleep off the night’s fishing. Not exactly a mad, ravening beast in my estimation. Jake has some impressive scars on his scalp and the side of his face, and his ear is nicely bisected, other than that, the bear allowed the ijit to live. So there, Stephen Colbert!

Yes swampbear, that rings so truly in my ears, lol! Aside from the message, if you haven’t watched bears fishing, it’s a pretty cool thing to do! Humpy Creek is a humpy (pink salmon) creek, and it cuts the village in half, so there is no avoiding passing the bears when they are feeding. They do not, however, look as cool and in control as that poster depicts, especially the two and three year olds!

Hey! We can always head to Bearidise. That would actually be quite fitting! :smiley:

Bearidise, eh?

Now, if we could get that kind of acceptance for hetero bears…

MMMMMMMMM… bears! It’s been several years since I did a bear thing. So many bears… so little time… it got so overwhelming! :smiley:

It seems to me you completely overlooked the fact that rabbits are tasty, too…

I’m not sure about bears.

You only think we domesticated cats…
