We asked readers Monday if they'd follow a Gig Harbor, Wash., woman's lead to get between her dog and a brown bear that worried them on a walk. She and the dog (a medium size mutt) are going to be fine. Maybe that influenced readers? Anyway, 72% said yes, they'd do the same thing or probably do the same thing. Only 18% said, no, they'd scream and run for help. One reader said his pet would take on the bear for him.
You can still consider in. Many of you have said before that pets are important family members. One owner took out a full page ad for three days when his cat left, for instance, and it came home. These figures really drive home that sentiment. Breeze commented "I'd do whatever I had to do to save her (his dog)."The bear is still on the loose, avoiding traps set by U.S. Fish and Wildlife officials. Now, high school officials are guarding the border of a wooded area near a high school there, according to the Associated Press, caring students who wander outside. I'm hoping it's sound asleep for the winter by now.
