It's a bear but, you know, black. :p

I don't expect anyone here to understand bear logic but my question is "what is so important inside of the outhouse so as to encourage an attack?" As far as I know, bears generally only attack if there's food or a cub is threatened.

That's just disturbing. I'm glad I wasn't eating when you put that mental image in my head. Haha.

Yeah, I should have known better than to open this thread while eating my lunch.

Then there's the video of the guy texting merrily along and a bear is coming right at him...

Update: Not just your rear, but watch your gear too. ;)

Saw this post today, and had to agree the bear was obviously a Canon fanboy (or fanbear). ;)
