Not that I have seen too much of wildlife, but bears give me *creeps*...
drifted upto here from urmila's journal... :)

Welcome...

He He! Wife thinks that they are cute and cuddly - each to their own I guess

I guess it depends on your first experiences with any animal - whether they be from books, television, grandma's stories, or real life encounter. The first few experiences always leave a lasting mark, sometimes creating phobias or philos on the spot.

Indeed - but one could presume since a teddy bear is a universally loved soft toy most people think the same about real bears

Great photo. Bears look so cute, but like you said, they're quite deadly.

Thanks for the compliment, next time we hope to see bear cubs - if the mother allows - they are still more cute :)
