He got two bears killed. The troopers shot one away from the camp when it challenged them on the path to the camp. At the camp they had to shoot another bear that looked like it was staulking them and I believe it actually threatened them once. The first bear was killed at 12 yards, way too close for my comfort level. The troopers had to leave because of bad weather and they did not have a chance to examine the stomach contents of the bears. The bigger of the two bears was the one they killed on the path. When they came back to examine the stomach contents of that one they found human parts and clothing in the stomach. The camp was situated on a sort of bear cross roads on the island so that the tree huggers could see as many bears as possible. As a result, the entire bear carcass had been eaten by other bears before the troopers could come back and examine the stomach contents. However, it appeared that the smaller bear had been guarding the food cache that consisted of human body parts.
Yep, the idiots got two bears killed for their stupidity. Almost as bad as a friend of my brothers that got a promotion, bought a BMW M3 as a result, and went out drinking with some friends later that night to celebrate. Of course, he had to try out the new BMW on the way home which resulted in him killing two of his good friends and landing himself in the hospital and probably in jail with 2 counts of vehicular manslaughter. His stupidity got his friends killed. Difference is, the tree huggers at least died.
