Please – do NOT believe everything you read

A local (to me) person was killed in an accidental confrontation with a bear. Detailed information has NOT been determined or released.

The headlines: “Biker killed by Grizzly” are media hype. Tests are currently being run on the victim and information gathered.

I am so very much dismayed that this has turned into a global media circus headlined by “Grizzly kills mountain biker”.

A local man died. A bear may soon be euthanized. It is a tragic situation being aggrandized by the media and people’s fear.

It will likely be weeks before truth is determined.
