Hat tip to reader “Jim”!
A 37-year old Kelly Ann Walz entered the bear cage that housed “Teddy”, a pet bear kept in a cage near their home. She tossed some food into the corner of the cage to “distract” the bear while she cleaned the pen. The bear attacked and killed her. A neighbor came and shot the bear.
This is a tragic accident and our thoughts and prayers go out to Walz’s family at this time. As a teachable moment, we all need to be reminded that no matter what we think about animals, they are still unpredictable. It appears Kelly Ann Walz’s decision not to move the bear to a segregated area was a fatal one.
