Now I believe the bear was only trying to demonstrate the wastefulness of those renting vacation homes ..

I suppose the bear is a recycling advocate.

I personally know countless people who have been attacked by a dog and required medical attention while in Garrett County, yet know of no one who has received as much as a scratch from a bear. Sometimes it's the things you don't worry about that end up biting you not those that get sensationalized in the media. As just one example, you are something like 250 times more likely to die in a car crash than a plane crash yet the same people who are terrified of flying think nothing of getting in a car.
