Russian Ice-Skating Bear Kills His Trainer

Thursday, October 22, 2009

The director of a circus arena says an ice-skating bear turned on its trainers, killing one and seriously wounding another, the Associated Press reported.

A Russian circus troupe was rehearsing for a performance in Bishkek, Kyrgyzstan, when the incident happened.

Workers had to drag the bear away during the attack, according to the director of the arena, Kurmangazy Isanayev, Sky News reported.

The exits were closed off as staff waited for the emergency services.

Police shot the bear dead at the scene.

I don't know what some people think when they try to tame a wild animal. Wild animal is a wild animal. It can snap at anytime for any reason...just like Pitbull!

Maybe you should try it then and read a bit and lean something.

lean => learn

If someone were to tell me a loved one died at the hands of a bear, I'd be horrified. I've been much closer to some than I ever wanted to be while out hiking and camping in past years. Some of them are just friggin' huge. When they got to the part about the bear being on skates, however, I doubt I'd be able to keep from laughing.

The worst part is that Russia is now saying they won't be able to field a women's hockey team in Vancouver for the 2010 games since someone had to put the bear down.
