Beware 0f Grizzly attacks

Certainly seem to be a lot more in BC and AB this year, probably 6-8 that I'm aware of this year. There agin too, with them not being hunted, there are just more bears too, along with a bunch of people not paying attention to warnings and their surroundings. I expect there are likely more bears seeing people, and not bothering with them, than people seeing bears too.
Same applies to snakes and sharks… Lots more out there that you don’t see…
I don’t recall who it is on the forum but they have used the tag
“What does not kill you, will make you stronger… Except for bears… Bears will definitely kill you…!!”
 
I'm an old guy and that went over my head like the roof. Explanation please. I'm always open to broadening my horizons.
If you go down to the woods today, you’d better go in disguise.
If you go down to the woods today your sure of a big surprise.
For every bear that ever there was will gather there for certain because, today’s that day the Teddy Bears have their picnic…

I dont get it neither
Is that a Roosevelt referrence of some sort?
Aside from that, I have encountered a few Black bears in my yard, out in the woods etc,
But I can say in comparison... I am SOOO GLAD there is no longer California Grizzly's
I don't care if you're a triathlete, you will not out run one

You need another person to:
Tell the authorities where your body was last seen.
“Distract” the bear so you can tell the authorities where their body was last seen.
Young guys think they’re indestructible and can outrun a grizzly bear. Old guys know better.
Old guys have a hard time finding someone that runs slower than they do.

If you don't know that one, you're not old enough. Never heard the song The Teddy Bears Picnic?? Young whipper snapper.
Old Time radio. Big sister (8 years older than me) used to listen to The SHADOW at night and it would scare the crap out of me.
Inner sanctum. That one would get you for sure. You missed all the good stuff where you had to use your imagination.:)

76. More of a Davy Crockett guy than inner sanctum. Old time music for me is Hank, Sr., Tennessee Ernie Ford. How old would I have to be for Teddy Bears Picnic? :D:D

OK, looked it up on YouTube. 1932. My dad would have been 7 years old. I wasn't even a twinkle in his eye yet!
 
It was still around in the ‘60’s when I first heard it…. It was on a “Children’s” record.
You do remember records don’t you…??? ;)
78"s and 45's. Grew up on a farm milking cows, baling hay, pitching chit and much more. No time for "children's " records.
 
Sorry I don't have pix, but I've had 2 griz (or the same one twice) on my front porch. Makes my AR 450 Bushmaster feel real small. Until my wife can shoot a heavy lever gun, that is what we use when we let the dogs out before and after daylight.
