You may claim to worship our Lord & Savior J-C, but you have A FILTHY SOUL.

People like you are the reason this earth is dying.

I hope one day your children are hunted “for sport,” or for someone else’s bloodlust.

You make me sick.

CALGARY – A medical examiner has confirmed that a central Alberta man who disappeared while out hunting was killed by a bear.

Robert Wagner, 48, of Didsbury was reported missing after failing to return from his trip Monday. His body was found less than a kilometre away from his truck southwest of Sundre on Wednesday.

Alberta Fish and Wildlife officials are still searching for the bear, which is believed to be a grizzly.

Another hunter was killed by a bear in the same area last November.

Some Final Points to Ponder

- His name wasn’t Timothy Treadwell; it was Timothy Dexter.
- He was not an orphan from Australia or England; he was raised with his family in New Jersey.
- He wasn’t in a secret, remote part of Alaska with only bears and poachers; he was in Katmai National Park where there was no threat of poachers or habitat destruction. There were biologists, photographers, anglers, and backcountry campers traveling through the Park daily.
- There was no essential, meaningful study or research that Treadwell was conducting. The National Park Service denied him a research permit and told him not to conduct himself in a manner that broke park regulations (approaching bears).
- He did not carry a gun (he was a hero); he was in a National Park where guns are not permitted
- ‘Grizzly People’ is not a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization.
- He was very selective in where he targeted his school presentations to get donations from wealthy patrons
- Treadwell’s book, television appearances, video documentaries, and presentations focused on him and not the welfare of the bears.
- People in the press and broadcasting industry need to seriously consider their role in building a Treadwell myth. Why did the media become an enabler of this false information?
- All of us have to think about how we can protect bears and other wildlife from this kind of exploitation, media manipulation, and profiteering in the future. Then take action to prevent more of it occurring in the future.
- Sadly Amie Huguenard was also fatally mauled. Tim Treadwell who did not use the recommended electrical fencing or bear pepper spray should have seen to it that she was properly protected even if he was careless about his actions around bears.
- Regarding the protection of people and wildlife, and basic responsible behavior in bear country, where were the television critics and media watchers to criticize this inappropriate programming on Dateline, Rosie O’Donnell, Letterman and Discovery Channel? The media must consider human and wildlife safety issues when producing future wildlife programs. The public at large needs to speak out about the garbage that is being broadcast and printed that exploits wildlife, is inaccurate and promotes behavior that puts people and wild animals at risk!

State and federal agencies need to become pro-active. They can no longer passively overlook or approve programs, which degrade or abuse people and wild animals.
