She's pretty cute too, judging by the pic in the paper today. Bet she's spoken for already... >=[

However, she is very lucky, since most maulings up here are done by black bears. I heard on the bus that she told the paper that she didn't really comprehend it was a bear until after she hit it. They do look a lot like big dogs.

...but pls, PLS, don't go punch a bear to get famous. You will make the paper, but the article will be about who you are survied by. n_n

Uh, cool I guess. Do not try it at home, though. A dog's not worth getting yourself mauled, and I doubt it would do any good anyway.

Must have been a pretty skittish bear, because I doubt a punch really hurt it.

Bear: Hey! Sheesh lady, what was that for? I was just saying hi! You didn't have to go haul off and hit me...
