There is a world somewhere between reality and fiction. Although ignored by many, it is very real and so are those living in it. This forum is about the natural world. Here, wild animals will be heard and respected. The forum offers a glimpse into an unknown world as well as a room with a view on the present and the future. Anyone able to speak on behalf of those living in the emerald forest and the deep blue sea is invited to join.

Humans and bears - Wild encounters

A Historic Grizzly... Roscoe, a man I know who managed the St. Mary's Lodge at St. Mary's Montana was walking a high mountain trail in Glacier National Park with two lady friends. One of the ladies stayed behind to take pictures while Roscoe  and the other lady continued their sightseeing adventure.   The two of them rounded a corner on the trail, when out of nowhere a grizzly knocked Roscoe down and began to throw him around like a rag doll. He told me that he was helpless. As the bear was mauling him the lady ran to a tree and began to ascend. By doing this she actually saved Roscoe, because the bear left him in his blood and torn body and sprinted for the tree. The grizzly reached  up near ten feet and grabbed the lady by her gastrocnemius muscle ( calf ) and jerked her out of the tree. While doing so, the bear had folded the muscle over her ankle! As she lay there in pain and shock, the bear just sniffed her and turned and walked off. Apparently the mood swing was over. Roscoe, who is a larger person, perhaps two hundred and fifty pounds with a six foot four inch frame, told me the bear was no bigger than him, yet threw him around with very little effort! What strength!
