A bear that age - outta curiosity, would mama bear be that far off? And if so, would it attack the people in the Manker parking lot if they were not in close contact with the cub?
I'm still baffled about the group of hikers on the Mt Wilson/Winter Creek? trail and the more-than-friendly cub they were hanging around with
I remember when I was young and extra stupid - staying in Tuolumne Meadows, I essentially left an entire grocery store in the back of my truck [w/ a camper shell] overnight. The Cheez-itz and Ding Dongs were practically falling out of the window ----- that night, about 15 cars got the hell ripped out of them --- it was a long walk to the end of the lot, but it was my lucky morning cause not a hint of a bear around my truck

--- some of the owners said there was no food in their cars at all, yet the bears tore up everything to discover nothing.
The rest of the nights, those cars were in the back of my mind...
So true Taco - as cute as those cubs can be, these bird brains have got to find a way to hold back --- and not throw the bears portions of their pastrami sandwiches!
