Pointing A Finger At Smokey

When most people think about bears shot in self defense, they think about charging grizzlies. But there is another kind of dangerous bear out there -- the predaceous black bear.

A real rarity in most of North America, these dangerous bears pop up occasionally in the Far North. Back in 1977, geologist Cythia Dusel-Bacon lost both arms to one that attacked her in a thicket north of Fairbanks and tried to eat her alive.

Smokey's hungry, and he could care less about forest fires. He wants to eat you.
