I now have 17 days!!

Talked to a friend of mine up there and was told there was a bear attack.
It killed a 6 year old girl and badly hurt her mom and infant sibling!! The mom and baby will be oaky. They caught the bear yesterday and killed it. She said they are sending it to U T for a once over!

Let us NOT forget they are wild animals!!

Um, this story has been all over the national media and there's even a thread about it here in the MOTD forum:
