Well that isn't entirely true. A few years ago we had a crew working on a seismic line. They had their equipment in one spot and walked up the line 100 m to look for a pin.A grizzly bear crossed the line in front of them and stopped, stood up and waved its head back and forth smelling them. They froze for a minute and then heard a noise behind them. When they turned around they saw a second grizzly bear dragging their lunch filled backpack into the woods.
HELLO pic-i-nic basket!
