I saw this show and really liked it. I so envy Charlie's opportunity to just literally "frolic" with the bears. Charlie lying on the ground
with that one big black bear and just stroking him/her while looking into its eyes is something I do with my dogs. Sounds corny but they sit still for the
longest time that way and honestly I'm the first one that has to look away.
I too struggled with the exposure of these beautiful bears to a little taste of man's kindness knowing that not every man wants to show this side of themselves to the bears at Bear Haven. Hopefully Bear Haven will remain as pristine and secluded as it seemed to me.
Grizzly Man was a great show too in a much different way. Terribly sad what happened. Things that nightmares and scary campfire stories are made of. But it was sort of predictable. Let's face it, just like Steve Irwin, the croc hunter - who meant no harm to any animal - Charlie will probably get done in by one of his "friends". Maybe not even intentional (like Zigfried/Roy in Vegas whose lion attacked him to supposedly save him). Ya just can't mix beasts with humans. Nobody's fault, just the way we're wired.
