Man survives bear attack

'He's eating my brain. I can feel it,' recalls bear attack survivor

A 53-year-old man in Saanich, B.C., managed to drive to safety after a grizzly bear mauled his head and tossed him to the ground in the woods near Bella Coola, about 700 kilometres north of Vancouver.

The attack took place on May 3 when Brent Case was on a surveying job along the rugged Central Coast area.

"He came up from behind me and started gnawing at the back of my head. It just started ripping the scalp off the head," Case told CBC News on Friday.


This has got to be the quote of the year:

"They started using the peroxide and, 'Ooh,' I said, 'that hurt more than the bear!'"

Why'd they kill the bear?! :(

If a bear attacks a person, they've got to go.

They may get used to it. Makes more sense probably than trying to kill a shark days after it bites someone. Those are nearly always "mistakes".

If a bear attacks a person in Rockland County, they've got to go.

If a bear attacks a person wandering the woods of British friggin' Columbia, I'd say the bear was acting in self defense. :)
