The Bear Facts

I suppose you've all heard about the 32 year old woman who decided it would be a good idea to jump into the polar bear exhibit at the zoo yesterday.

Now, if she had accidentally slipped and fallen in, she would have my sympathy. But as the story goes, she jumped in on her own accord because she must have wanted to go for a swim with these animals.

The last time I checked, I read that a bear is a dangerous animal that you don't want to mess around with. The fact that it weighs about half a ton and has big claws and pointed, sharp teeth did not seem to deter this woman from this stupid act, as she probably thought that they were cute stuffed animals, or something similar. I think that if you look up "stupid" in Wikipedia today, you'll find her picture, lol!

On trying to come up with a sensible reason why she would do something of this nature, I could only conclude that these particular animals, due to their nature, have difficulty doing the back stroke and must have asked this woman for her help ...to which she graciously volunteered her services. They later changed their minds when they saw her in the pond and thought that she would make a delicious dessert for the meal that they were already enjoying and started biting her in the ass. Now, if you ask me, I think she has earned herself the "stupidest person of the day" award.

Here's a piece of advice: If you go to a zoo, and you see fences and/or high walls between yourself and the animals, that usually means "don't cross over!" Do not attempt to assist any animal, because that's exactly what they are ...animals! ...not pets, or cuddly stuffies.

Now, if I were the zookeeper, I would have left her in there to enjoy her swim with these beautiful creatures and I wouldn't have to feed them for a week ...burp!

That's all for now. Hope it makes sense to you.
