Troy is one of our smart Canadians cuz he can recognize a grizzly and not confuse it with a brown bear. In fact, he lectured a bunch of visitors to the provincial park about the differences. Here is the rest of the story:~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
Troy, a Canadian park ranger is giving some ramblers a warning about bears:
“Brown bears are usually harmless. They avoid contact with humans so we suggest you attach small bells to your rucksacks and give the bears time to get out of your way. However, grizzly bears are extremely dangerous. If you see any grizzly bear droppings leave the area immediately.”
“So how do we know if they’re grizzly bear droppings?” asks one of the ramblers.
“It’s easy,” replies the Troy. “They’re full of small bells.”
Are those European National Parks or British National Parks? They are certainly well worth a visit… Brad and his dog would certainly enjoyed their trip over here…
You owe it to yourself to watch the late (d.2018) Troy Hurtubise testing his suit WWW.youtube.COM/watch?v=sLUdtF7aG7o in this clip from the documentary Project Grizzly
Hiking in Alaska with a friend, we spotted a huge brown bear. Its head was the size of a basketball, it’s ears the size of grapefruits. She had the sense to ring the bell and scare it away. All I could think of were three words, “wide angle lens”

With 933 manatees, Blue Spring is probably very brown.

It would seem that Troy is a slow learner. Very slow…….

No mention of surviving a Grizzly Bear attack, though.
