A man named Tim Scott of Springfield KY was attacked while hiking at the Red River Gorge by a black bear last week. He was hiking ahead of his party and took some pictures of the bear before being mauled by it. He was saved by other hikers who threw various objects at the bear that eventually ran it off!! Mr. Scott's legs were badly chewed up, but he will heal up from his ordeal. They closed the park to look for it, but re-opened when they were unsuccessful. I bet he carries a 44 magnum the next time he goes hiking though!! People say black bears are docile!!! Ya, until they're not!!!!
