In Reply to: Grizzly Man: a brilliant document posted by njjohn on December 31, 2005 at 11:45:29:
The only thing this man "accomplished" was miraculously staying alive for as long as he did. Attaching some sort of psuedo-scientific connection to his "research" is extremely dangerous and amounts to projecting human qualities on a non-human species.
I certainly believe almost all higher order animals have unique personalities (for lack of a better word) that distinguish individuals from each other, but promoting an obviously disturbed and delusional young man's obsessive behavior as legitimate science is foolish. His and his girlfirends unfortunate ending was not ironic,unexpected, or even tragic. It was only inevitable. BTW, I have no disdain or disrespect for this man; just my opinions.
