Finally, after decades of research, we have the answer to what was thought to be a rhetorical question: Do bears, er, go in the woods?
The answer came after an incident on May 23, leaving the world stunned: Not if there’s an alternative.
A bear in the woods near Winnipeg, Ontario, chose an outhouse over the great outdoors but – surprise! – there was a human inside.
Apparently in urgent need of the facilities, the black bear grabbed 65-year-old Gord Shurvell by the back of his pants, which were at the time around his ankles, and dragged him from the wooden outhouse toward the woods.
Well, unless there was an outline of a human figure on the outhouse door, you can hardly blame the bear. How was he to know?
And, too, Shurvell may be partially to blame since he decided to leave the outhouse door open as he sat there, watching the beautiful scenery, which just happened to be concealing a bear with mayhem on its mind.
A friend who was with Shurvell at the fishing camp heard him scream and rushed to his aid, shooting at the bear. Shurvell escaped with a puncture wound in the back of his head, along with cuts and bruises on his body, but the news accounts don’t say where.
One reporter, apparently an investigative journalist more highly paid than I am, was able to determine that, no, Shurvell had nothing “scared out of him.” A Pulitzer is on its way.
