Heard this on Cartalk the other day. Paraphrased:

Two foreign scientists wanted to studie grizzly bears in Yellowstone Park; one was from Hungary and the other from the Czech Republic. They flew to Yellowstone, met with the park rangers who warned them about how dangerous the bears could be. They gave them communication devices, maps, and supplies and told them they HAD to check in every day. Otherwise, the rangers would have to go look for them immediately, because it would mean they'd probably been killed by the bears. A couple of weeks went by with no problems, they checked in everyday and were quite pleased with the data they were getting.

Finally, the day came when they didn't check in. The rangers launched an immediate rescue party. It took awhile for them to get to the right spot. When they reached it, they saw the female grizzly and realised they'd have to shoot her in order to open her and see if she'd eaten either of the scientists. They hated to have to do that, but felt it was necessary. They didn't want any kind of international incident at the loss of the scientists.

So, they shot her, opened up her belly and found the Hungarian; sure enough, she'd eaten him. One ranger looked at the other and said, "You know what this means, don't you?"

The other ranger said,
