Bear Woman

Ann Bryant is on a one-woman mission to save Lake Tahoe's black bears from their biggest threat: people. Human-bear conflicts escalate in summer as thousands of tourists flood into bear country on the California-Nevada border. Dozens of bears are killed each year after contact with people. Armed with a paintball gun and dressed in her trademark head-to-toe black and sunglasses, Ann is on the frontline of this extraordinary battle.

2010 will prove to be one of Ann's toughest and most emotionally challenging summers yet as she battles to save the creatures she believes she's destined to protect.

@iwalkbesideyou2010 Actually, you dumbfuck, bears are very dangerous creatures. They can be pests to people because they rummage through garbage and would cross into your property. If you panic, they WILL attack you. I also don't understand how animals can kill animals, but people can't. By the way retard, unlike humans, bears have NO MERCY when attacking and WILL kill you when they attack. So fuck you, fucking asshole.

859jack These bears have not attacked anyone. We moved onto their homes, they want to eat, survive just like we do. Where do you live? I want to come buldoze your home & invite animals to their new home. Party at 859jack's house. Anymore volunteers to freely give up your land & homes, let your kids be killed for no reason? Who gives people the right to kill? protection is one thing, sport & being scared of our own greed is another! This world is big enough for all living things! Peace & God ?

@MiddIeFinger YOUR A WAIST OF TIME & STILL HAVEN'T READ WHAT I'VE POSTED..LOL NEVER MIND. I HAVE BETTER THINGS TO DO!!! LIKE THE ALL CAPS? YEAH DIDN'T THINK SO : )> REMEMBER I AM A DUMB FUCK RETARD, THAT'S MY EXCUSE. I KNOW WHO I AM, IT'S A SHAME YOU DON'T THE SAME

[MiddIeFinger]

@iwalkbesideyou2010 Haha I am intelligent, or at least much more smarter than you. Guess what retard? Animals ARE invasive too and DO claim territory. You're a fucking idiot for not knowing that. The only difference is that humans actually managed to use technology to do so. By the way, tell me what the government is doing? You don't even explain anything. It's private businesses that mess with nature, not the government you retard. At least I know what I'm talking about, you don't. Asshole.

[iwalkbesideyou2010]

Hmm Dumbfuck huh? You are so intelligent, you couldn't come up with something better? At least something that would make you sound like you know what your talking about? I NEVER said Bears were NOT or could not be dangerous. I have said, WE HUMANS complain about the animals getting into OUR HOMES, GARBAGE, ETC. Who do you think lived there before we came & destroyed THEIR HOMES? You need to really see what this government is doing & people with money & power. You will be just like the Bears GONE

@zaniellify I am not sure what the hell you are talking about. No matter what, I am far from being a bumpkin from the prairies. Based on your reply to me I am sure I can run circles around a mental midget such as yourself.

You need to crawl back in the cave of a hibernating bear and suckle momma bears teats. Anyway, you have a nice day.

There's disgusting infestation by hick subhumans in CA national forests (look at Plumas NF, for example). Serial-killer look-alikes ("hunters") roam these forests, searching to kill whatever they find, these people are bloodthirsty, no need to lie they just want to kill animals. Rangers WARN hikers not to camp/hike alone, for this reason (I was warned). This scum occupies forests interfering with citizen safety. A hiker can not be safe there. Time to get rid of them and ban hunting completely.

I'm glad Nevada residents can own and carry hand guns. Cause when you go to the national forest and can run into criminal, murderous hunters scum, who want to kill everything that lives--you WANT to have a gun on you, just in case. Hunters are all murderers and wouldn't stop at killing a human being, like a lone hiker, if they could get away with it, I know it. Just look at their inbred, disgusting faces as they roam forests in search of blood.

[zaniellify]

Time to burn down houses by Lake Tahoe. This is national treasure and should be national land, for every one's use, not by the rich and wealthy. Hotels must be removed as well and moved at least 10 miles away from the lake. This all should be forest land.

@francoamerican111 Wat are you to teach others how to speak? I bet some bumpkin from the praries... Dude is often used in CA, get over it, stupid hick.
