[QUOTE="Pdvdh, post: 2233126, member: 4191"] Just remembered another example - this one involving people jogging. McHugh Creek Trail is located ~12mile south of Anchorage. A well-reknowned elderly marathon runner in her 60s was jogging up this mountain trail and stumbled into a brown bear camped on a dead moose carcass. The bear killed the lady in short order. The woman's son and grandson were running the trail with her. The son heard and then observed his mom being attacked. He tells the grandson to climb a tree and heads off to assist his mother. He was killed in short order also. The grandson who climbed and stayed put in a tree lived to tell the authorities what happened. That brown bear was never found or killed. Jogging thru bear country? Another "paying the toll" example. Harder to hear and see the bears when you're jogging, compared to walking up & down the trails. [/QUOTE]
