      Hmmm. What is he doing with the dead polar bear in that picture?

          BBC News - Horatio Chapple death: Polar bear 'probably stressed'

          If it had not been stressed all would have been fine.

            I do sometimes wonder if have psychopathic tendencies as my first thought on reading about this incident was - bastards, they shot a bloody polar bear.
            I'm not proud
            I'm sorry, but I'll make no apologies for this

                      BBC News - Horatio Chapple death: Polar bear attack narrative verdict

                      Failures by an expedition company did not cause the death of a British teenager mauled by a polar bear in Norway, a coroner has said.

                      A victory for common sense.
