many additional gray hairs dur
ing each day of the season be-
cause of tourists who persist in
ignoring all rules and warnings
against feeding the bears. And
for good reason - in Yellow
stone Park alone last year 109
bear incidents were logged.
Nearly all these incidents, and
similar cases in other national
parks, are induced and aggre-
waited by people, not by bears.
By the mother, for example, who
was caught in the act of putting
her 2-year-old daughter on a
bears back because it would
make a cute picture" Or the
man who tried to shove a full
grown bear behind the steering
wheel of his car so he could get
a picture of the bear sitting next
to his wife in the front seat. Or
another man who put a cookie
between his teeth and tried to en-
tice a bear to nibble from the
other side.
None of these people were
hurt, which seems to prove the
adage that the Lord protects
idiots and children" But not ev<
eryone is so lucky, many have
been savagely clawed, some have
lost hands or arms, a few have
been killed. And untold damage
has been done to tents, automo-
biles and camping equipment by
marauding bears searching for
food.
Campers r always warned in
bear country to carry all their
food in air-(and smell-) tight
containers, and never, never leave
food in the seat or even trunk
Of a car. Bears have an excellent
sense of smell, and are powerful
enough to rip a convertible top
TO shreds, knock over a trailer,
Or batter a trunk lid into mop
arability.
AS with all animals in the ma
-ional parks, bears III wild and
should always be treated with
respect When you feed the ami
mails, as though they were exnib-
is in a zoo, you not only place
Yourself in serious danger, but
you do a grave injustice to the
animals themselves. While beg
ging bears may be "cute" and
he cubs soft and cuddly, they
;oon become dependent on food
and forget how to for

PARK A

In his natural wild state, a
bear offers almost no threat to
the outdoor traveller. When en-
countered in his normal habitat,
he desires nothing more than TO
depart hurriedly elsewhere. The
only exception to this can be an
adult grizzly in a nasty mood,
but these huge animals r rare
ly encountered except in remote,
little-traveled areas
Strangely enough, it is in the
national parks that bears injure
more people than anywhere else.
And this is due solely to the
tourists themselves. These visitors
flock to the parks by the millions
every year, to see animals and
plants, mountains and lakes and
desert, all sturdily defended and
protected against the encroach-
mentLQf a mechanical civiliza-
ton.
Due to this constant protection,
many of the animals dwelling
within the boundaries of the ma
tional parks have lost their fear
of man as the strangeness has
worn off. Cars become common
place, even the timid deer ignore
their presence.
Because the bears continue to
amble along the roadsides despite
heavy traffic, because they will
accept almost any kind of food,
unwary humans jump to the con-
clusion that these animals are
tame and therefor harmless.
Nothing could be less true.
These bears are still just as wild
and unpredictable as their cou-
sins who never see a human or
automobile. But they are far
more dangerous, for this very
reason 1t never occurs to those
bears you see lying on the grassy
shoulder of the road that a mere
man could possibly be a threat.
They do not lcok upon humans
as domesticated dogs and cats do,
instead you are a small puny be-
who al easily be dispatched
with one quick swipe of a front
paw.
Offer a national park bear a
and he does not dis
.inguish between the bread and
your hand He is just as likely
% take both of them up to your
wrist as not.

Let's assume you have a few
hundred or q few thousand dol

Let's assume, too, that prices
will climb on average about 2
per cent q year over the next
decade and you want your nest
egg to be invested 50 that you
will be protected against this
sort of erosion in the dollars
