Noooooo! How could they have shot and killed this bear? Why didn't they try and reason with it? Why didn't they just shut down the post office for the day, send everyone home but leave the back doors open so the bear could have left. What is this world coming to? I'm sure Ted Stevens Airport could have easily diverted the flights to Fairbanks for the afternoon to quiet things down. The police should have closed down Postmark drive until the bear wandered out on its own. All they had to do was put a trail of peanut butter and donuts leading out the door, wait a few days and problem solved.
