Siberian camper hurt by bear in 'food row'


KRASNOYARSK, August 11 (RIA Novosti) - A man in East Siberia has been injured after 'arguing' with a bear over food supplies, a Russian emergencies ministry spokesman said on Monday. The bear approached a camp in the Krasnoyarsk Territory where a group of holidaymakers were staying late on Sunday night. Upon seeing the bear, the campers ran away from their tents and returned later to see the animal eating their food.

One of them, a 35-year-old man from the nearby town of Minusinsk, started to shout at the animal and tried to get his food back. Instead of relinquishing the food, however, the bear hit out at the holidaymaker three times before leaving the camp. The holidaymaker suffered a broken arm and various other injuries in the attack.

As fond as I am of food, I think I would let the bear have it!

I'm with you, SpursFan. Better that than the bear mistaking ME for it's next meal. Very Happy
