The animals are wild, plus the interaction of wildlife and people along the road are pretty wild in another sense. Especially Asian tourists, as every time they take a picture of some special attraction like a historic building, monument, or scenery, they have to be in the picture. Forerunner of the selfie, I guess.

The best one was the Ranger telling about a woman smearing peanut butter on her kids necks so she could get pictures of a bear licking them. :facepalm:

Not only are the animals wild. The RV camps get that way after dark.

And here is a "something of an exaggeration" to the other side...

That's a pretty good argument. I hadn't thought about it like that.

Parking at the most popular attraction, and snowmobiles on the road in winter, where cars would be in summer. But neither show hiking the 3500 sq miles of back country. Most people never see anything they can't see from the road.

Don't eat the Daisies carnations and chrysanthemums.

I suppose if I spent good money on a floral tribute, I would resent having it eaten the same afternoon. But it does mean I know what to plant on Mum's grave if I outlive her. She would love the idea of squirrels coming to visit her.

I put a bird feeder on Slick's grave.

Florida is holding their first bear hunt in 21 years, $100 in state, $300 out of state, and may have more hunters than bears.

I got a hat like that.

Now Florida has everyone worked up about bear hunting just hope it doesn't lead to a tragedy like this one in Alaska.

Please use it responsibly.

What is a responsibly?

I'm not really sure. I've consciously avoided the things most of my life.
