Re: Penned grizzly kills wolf in front of onlookers, May 27

Admittedly, I know little about wolves or bears. However, whoever the knothead was that thought it was a good idea to place two different predatory animals in the same "pen" should be locked in that pen with them.

It's sad to take in wild animals to protect and preserve them and then to turn around and demonstrate such unimaginable ignorance with this experiment. This is cruelty to animals at its worst.

There is no amount of story-telling or examples anyone can provide that could convince me or any right-minded person that, when placed in an enclosure that is a mere fraction of their normal range, bears and wolves suddenly become compatible.
