Ready for a dip cause everything is melted here now! Will have to "TEST" out the water soon! Jerry, I really should throw you in just like this, because now that I think about it, you actually did say a "word"! But this cat just "JUMPED" in all by itself! HONEST!!!  Guess who's next Jerry!!!  You certain of that??? That kitty looks a bit apprehensive to me.

Must be something in the water... Well Horowitzian, Yes, looks like there "is" something in the water! Wonder if this is the spring cleaning Jerry was talking about!

Oh, dang. I suppose there's a story behind that picture? Reminds me of that Inspector Clouseau movie, The Return of the Pink Panther.

Ya know, all kidding aside, that fellow looks like he's in real trouble! Gadzooks! Those bears can really move!!! Calculating what that guy has to do to avoid being eaten (open the door, climb in and close it) I think he's in deep doo doo.
Diane, any word on his fate?

If you look at the two pictures, the bear has gone around the front of the vehicle and traveled most of the distance down the left side while the human has barely traveled the length of the back! True, the bear has two turns to make, but that whole thing does not look good at all. Bears can turn on a dime ... at full speed no less!!!

After the bear got down from the front of the car, I'll bet the guy didn't know which way he was heading until he came around the front. Bear meat, that's what he is and all the while, his buddy, standing there taking pictures. Nice friend. :-) Getting pics of his buddy turning into mince meat. Boy, talk about "bearing it all."

 Whew! He was able to reach a neighboring unlocked truck and take refuge inside nursing over a hundred scratches. The guy was really lucky. The bear probably thought he had Al Gore offering himself as endangered polar bear sustenance. If he was unarmed, the cameraman did exactly the right thing. He shot with what he had.

Yikes! That fellow sure was fortunate to have an unlocked truck nearby. That blog comment had it right. It's downright foolish to travel in that country without a large caliber firearm.
