We hope that his boldness is at least subdued, so that no extreme measures have to be taken. During mating season this year, the male bears displayed unusual excitement by stamping their front feet when humans were near. This is the only human injury caused by bears in the park so far this season. The park policy of making the visitors aware and warned of bear traits is definitely paying off. One interesting antic he reports is that of a large bear which rolled a garbage can some twenty or thirty yards away from the garbage truck by backing away and pawing it toward himself.
Bears are wild animals.
Feeding them is an infringement of park regulations. But more than this, such actions are not easily reconciled to the bear's natural existence, which must be maintained for complete freedom on the part of these animals and for us who would like to observe them. We therefore hope that you will help to establish this situation by resisting temptation. Using field glasses, I could see the eagle moving through the water with the aid of his wings. I could not see whether or not the eagle had a fish in his talons and do not know how it got into the water.
