The One That Got Away


The fish and other wildlife caught a break.
Hunting and fishing are shut down until May 4.
I think there will be some benefit to this
though there are probably more than a few that are upset
that perfectly good wildlife or fish go uncaught.
We can’t have that, now can we… Well… Yes
A black bear came down from the Olympic Mountains along the
Dungeness River all the way to the mud flats of Dungeness Bay.
A small thing but I bet it hasn’t happened in the last hundred years.
The game wardens came to get the bear and gave it a
ride home so it worked out for the bear.
Just tell someone they can’t have it and they want it even more.
I am for the wildlife. They needed the break!

There are all sorts of wonderful stories of the wildlife enjoying their break. Maybe this will prompt controlling the number of visitors to parks. They do that at Kruger Park in S.Africa.

It is nice that the wildlife get a break! As long as the bear doesn't visit your backyard...:-)
