text: The writer is a Tim Tredwell wannabe.  Just not quite as stupid.  Facts are is that most common people are scared pooless of bears and do not want them in and around Anchorage.  We don't care if only one person was mauled by a bear.  It will change your life, if you live, for the negative of that I can assure you. I would not give the entire population of woods pigs (bears are related to pigs) for 1 human mauled or killed.  Why not hang up posters of the scars for life that mauled people have experienced at all the trail heads.  Never happen!  This is very much in the liberal tradition!
