This Is In The,

'what could possibly go wrong', department,

well lots actually it appears that more and more people are taking 'selfies' with bears in the background of their pictures, an alarmingly large number of tourists at South Lake Tahoe in California are taking in this latest craze despite warnings from the US Forest Service to leave the animals alone, or risk facing a gruesome end, most people don’t seem to realise that while bears are normally timid creatures, they are also quite unpredictable, “Bears are unpredictable, wild animals and may attack if threatened,” said Forest Supervisor Nancy Gibson, “We can’t have visitors creating dangerous situations for themselves and others, people are risking serious injury or death if they get too close to a bear.” and it’s not just at Lake Tahoe, the ‘bear selfie’ craze has reached Canada as well, where pictures are being posted to social media websites,


what ever next? posing with a lion or leopard in the African bush lurking just behind you, oh no! I might have started a new trend in Africa!
