A Women's RV Forum run by Women RVer's!

I just looked at Beth's blog and her bear encounter. Her comment about idiots reminded me that when I lived in Seattle there used :to be a sign at the entrance of Mt Rainier lodge that said:

PLEASE DON'T MOLEST THE BEARS.

Now I don't know about you but I have NEVER had any intention of MOLESTING a bear. I could understand a sign that said, "Please don't FEED the bears" but "Molest". I don't think so. It always amazed me the people who would get out of their car to feed the bear. What about "wild animal" don't they understand?

Some people think that animals in a Park are not wild. Duh!

Then they'd want to sue if somebody got hurt!

And sometimes, the bear has to be put down because it's been fed human food...I think the human doing the feeding should be put down - NOT the bear.

Totally agree with Mitch.

I guess they are city folks who just don't get "wild".... usually a bear doesn't want any part of a human unless you are between the mama and baby,.. guess in Beth's case she was parked in the bear's bathroom! All kidding aside, Beth,... so glad you didn't go outside. And that you got the window closed quickly.

I sure took that word "molest" differently Got to get my mind on straight. carold
