This is in Norwegian, but the story is from New Jersey and the pictures speak for themselves. "Jack", a very territorial 15lb tomcat, chased this bear up a tree, twice!, to get the bear out of "his" (Jack's) yard. All you cat folks out there will loooove these pictures.

OT: Amazing wildlife story
Half-marathon over. Sabbatical year over. It's back to "sacking shirt and oat cakes" as they say here.

Glad it cheered you up, dr. fish. You're also in the lead for the sport bean prize.

Hee hee - I've been watching the poll all day.
At least some things are going my way today. I showed Mr. Fish the bear pic - he just stared at it in amazement. That is some cat!
What are you a doc of, by the way?

the right to arm bears
I'm thinking you need to change your quote to:
protect bears from cats, support your right to arm bears.

My fierce little 9-pounder tabby "Dayhunter" has attacked both a(full-grown) husky and lab that came to visit. He sneaks up and then goes right for their faces, 9 lbs of spitting, furious outrage. BUT he gets chased across the yard by our red hens almost daily - I guess he knows they live here and he's not to hurt them.
I hope DH (yes, that's what we've called him for years) doesn't every meet up with a bear, though.
