I just saw a new show on Animal Planet called "Moose on the Loose". It is about wildlife, mostly bears and moose in Anchorage. It is made by the BBC and it makes Anchorage look just beautiful. I was really impressed.

The moose don't bother me at all, and personally haven't been pestered by bears, but one of the guys here shot a bear in his brother's house. It broke in and tore open the fridge, scattering food everywhere.

Died in the house charging the owner and his brother. Two .45 slugs in the chest at short range will stop a bear. Fish and game gave the bear the coup de grace - 1 into the skull, and took the carcass away. Troopers were amazed at the size of the bear (black), but said it was in the neighborhood due to some folks not storing the trash properly.

Shoot a fish? Very unsportsmanlike yes indeed.

Usually they tell me they're breathless after i have them in my hot little hands. It's mainly their body English, but I have come to realize that, yes, I can speak a couple lines of salmon.
