Default Bear attacks Moose in a man's front yard

Quote:
"I saw this wildlife spectacle of a full-grown brown bear on a moose and the moose fighting for its life," Gary said.

[...] "She tore apart the chest cavity, ripped out the heart and ate it," Gary said. "It was like she knew that's what kept it alive."

This is the part that is kinda bizzare:

Quote:
The prediction was right. The bear returned later that night, judging by the fresh tracks found Monday morning. The Lyons are now locking their doors, trying to avoid a more dangerous confrontation.
...because...if they dont lock the doors, the bear could just open them and come on in? Huh?

What difference will locking the doors make? heh heh

Default Title

Maybe their doors are made of thick steel? Even then, I don't see how locking it, as opposed to just closing it, would matter.

Default Apparently a steel door won't work either.

Grizzly smashes 400-pound steel door, rips through two electric fences

If only they'd locked the steel door in the first place, he never would have escaped.

Bear could turn the nob but didn't know how to pick the lock!

I guess if the bear was smart enough to rip out the moose's heart, knowing that that's what kept it alive... it must know to turn a doorknob because that's what opens the door.
Smarter than the average bear.

Its just as likely that the bear ate the heart first because that was the tastiest bit.

Maybe so... but can't be too careful.
That bear might come back with a gun!
