Brutus, The Pet Grizzly Bear

Brutus, an 800 pounds grizzly bear, is Casey Andersons best friend. Casey, a naturalist, and Brutus are inseparable from the day Brutus was a 2 weeks old cub. Casey saved the bear from an overpopulated wildlife park, and raised him with lot of attention, love and respect.

Brutus is living in a sanctuary that Casey built so he can freely live a life which a grizzly bear is supposed to live. Being around Brutus is not dangerous because he is comfortable around people, but Casey is still not letting anybody have physical contact with Brutus but himself. He is not afraid that the bear will ever attack him because he knows and predicts his every movement.

"He is not afraid that the bear will ever attack him because he knows and predicts his every movement."

Famous last words. We *will* be hearing more about this.

Mr. Anonymous don't be so sure. I don't recall Hercules ever harming anybody. Can you explain exactly why this animal would be more likely to attack a human than, say, a labrador retriever?

Because it's a grizzly bear, not a lab. It's his nature to attack eat other animals, including people.
