Subject:Black Bears vs Westy Canvas?

Despite the obvious and clearly stated subject line,
allow me to join many others in sharing an off-topic
and irrelevant bear story ...

During our Westy visit to Glacier National Park last
fall
http://www.vanthology.com/1Layout/Journeys/Glacier/Glacier1.html
a ranger explained how to tell the difference between
the various types of bears found in the park.

"If you run away and shimmy up a tree, and the bear
climbs right up after you, it's a black bear," he
said. "But if he stays on the ground, and just shakes
the tree until you fall out, that's a grizzly."
