I'm sure the bears see it the other way around...the people are becoming a menace encroaching on their territory.:-)

I am reminded of the place outside Hartford...big, swanky exclusive subdivisions built on and around some lovely forested hills. Only trouble was no one realised it was an ancient travelling route for rattlesnakes, lots and lots of rattlesnakes. They had to keep their kids inside and really watch their pets. I don't know if they ever came up with any solutions.
