Grizzly Anatomy
Class Mammalia, Order Carnivora, Family Ursidae (bears), Genus Ursus, species Arctos (grizzly bear and brown bear.)
Grizzly Bears are up to 7 feet (2.1 m) long and weigh up to 1,500 pounds (680 kg). Females are about 2/3 the size of males. Like all bears, they are plantigrade (flat-footed). The front claws are up to 4.75 inches (12 cm), almost twice as long as the rear claws. Newborns weigh only about 1 pound (0.45 kg), the size of a rat.

I wonder if Inog is having Bear Claw Stew right now?
ReplyDeleteYou know, Dick Cheney shoots birds and it wasn't until his second term he shot his friend. Bears are shot too, right. You know, I just don't understand it.
ReplyDeleteLot's of bear bile over here. I have never tried it.
ReplyDeleteI have never seen Bear Claw Stew. I have seen tiger paw, but never tried that either.
Oh my gosh! The bear, Miss Chocolate, has left me her poop! It's her crap! It was just in her butt and it's still warm! This is a gift from Miss Chocolate!
ReplyDeleteleave me alone!
ReplyDeleteI think I answered my own question by reading this blog. What happened to The Lounge?
ReplyDeleteGrrraaawwwrrrr!
ReplyDeleteOne time, I ate four pounds of cat shit laced with peyote and hiked to Alaska where I mind-melded with a grizzly bear. Here is what it told me:
ReplyDelete-"I want to swat your face off"
-"Mmmmm...I like to scratch, like this..."
-"I really want to crunch your bones in my mouth and slurp your blood"
-"I like salmon a real lot"
-"I like berries, but they aren't very filling"
-"naptime is happy time"
-"It really is driving me crazy that you are not being eaten by me right now"
-"what really cracks me up is when there are animal teeth in my turds"
-"watch how I scratch my back on a tree. Ha ha!"
-"I can pretty much do whatever I want"
Thanks, bear! I loved our time together!
You must fight the bear!
ReplyDeleteNow when you pick a pawpaw
ReplyDeleteOr a prickly pear
And you prick a raw paw
Next time beware
Don't pick the prickly pear by the paw
When you pick a pear
Try to use the claw
But you don't need to use the claw
When you pick a pear of the big pawpaw
Have I given you a clue ?
I like marmalade!
ReplyDeleteHoney is better than marmalade
