While Yogi Bear eats picnic baskets in Jellystone Park, bears at Yellowstone park will and do eat people.  And such was the fate of a Michigan man this week.  While hiking alone on a trail familiar to the man, he was attacked and killed by a bear.

Now, park rangers have vowed to track down the bear.  Yet, you have to wonder how they can determine which bear did the deed?  DNA?  And, since there were no eye witnesses, no one can give a description of the bear.

But more to the point, if you are out in the wilderness alone, anything can happen.  So, you need to be prepared.  Or more to the point, ALWAYS carry a gun.
