I call BS on this one. Sorry, it's not a "naturally occurring death" when the herders catch the bears coming in on the bedded down sheep and have pictures of them tearing out the udders of still alive and screaming ewes. And ranchers are not compensated for the deaths at all in many areas no matter the cause.
