The Bear Beat Is Not A Happy Place Today
“Today” looks back at the Montana mauling of last month in which a black bear killed a man and injured two other people. The bear and her three cubs were captured, and she was put down. The cubs have been placed in a Montana zoo, but, as “Today” continually points out, even though these are three little bears, “this is no fairy tale.” Which is true: It’s a tale of the imprisonment of a group of orphans who still cry out for their mother. In other bear news, there is this story of a fatal mauling in Ohio. Sigh. Make weekend come now.
