Trained grizzly bears are converting to Islam

[Oggiedoggie]

BIG BEAR LAKE, Calif. (AP) — The grizzly bear that wrestled Will Ferrell's character in the recent film "Semi-Pro" seemed to obediently follow cues — which made its killing of its trainer with a bite to the neck all the more stunning.

Three experienced handlers were working with the grizzly Tuesday at the Predators in Action wild animal training center when the bear attacked Stephan Miller, 39, said San Bernardino County sheriff's spokeswoman Cindy Beavers.

Stephan Miller is the cousin of training center owner Randy Miller, she said.

Pepper spray was used to subdue and contain the bear, and there were no other injuries, Beavers said. Paramedics arriving shortly after the initial emergency call around 3 p.m. were unable to revive Stephan Miller.

Could there be any other explanation?

Maybe the bear found out Stephan Miller registered as a Democrat.

There is no such thing as a trained wild animal.

Sounds like the idiot who claimed he could talk to Grizzly Bears, and often filmed himself cuddling with the furry creatures -- until the day one of them killed him, on camera. I still laugh my ass off at that one.
It's like the old Indian fable: A tiger comes across a cobra one day. They become friends, and hang out. One day, the cobra up and bites the tiger. As he lays dying, the tiger says: "Why did you do that. I thought we were friends?" The cobra says, "What the hell did you expect? I'm a cobra."

Neighbors always said he seemed like such a nice, quiet bear.

But do you think he shot Buckwheat?

Amen...doesn't even make sense, let alone not funny.

It was a tale of two bears.

Outlined against a blue, gray October sky, the bear ripped his throat out.

THIS is funny.

He died doing what he loved: Being eaten by a bear.

Heaven needed an apparently not-so-good bear trainer?

Timothy Treadway never cuddled with grown grizzlies. He occasionally managed to touch them. And he wasn't killed "on camera" unless you count a camera with the lens cap still on being accidently turned on during an attack in the middle of the night as "on camera."

Other than that, he was freaking loon.

I'm surprised this doesn't happen more often.

The bear was great in Semi-Pro.
