Horses are pretty damn cool too. Then again I'm a little biased because I love Mr Ed I like Horses mostly when people leave them alone and not making them jump and race then the horses break a leg then I have to watch them put it to sleep or shoot them. Wild Horses are awesome.

Wolves are awesome. However coyotes are dumb.
Sword fish are neat because they stab dumb assholes that refuse to drown.

We have a pack of coyotes that live near us and my German Shepard will run into the back yard (its fenced off) and bark at them and scare them away for a week.

Have any of you seen that film about the Grizzly Man? He was a guy who lived with bears for years before he was ultimately, and quite predictably, eaten by a bear in 2003. I watched it recently and enjoyed it. The guy was deluded and really needed some good guidance but there was a charm to him. Even though I knew what he was doing was what got him killed, I couldn't help but laugh at him and respect him to an extent for having such good intentions.

What good intentions were those? Did he try to put the bears through college or find them high paying jobs?
No seriously, I didn't see it so what were really his good intentions by living with them? I'm curious because that's looney toon behavior
Did you guys ever see Walk Like a Man with Howie Mandell where he was raised by wolves and then found his human family after almost 30 years? It almost reminds me of that except Howie Mandell had no choice but to be raised by the wolves in this movie.

I've not seen that.
The guy that lived with the bears didn't actually roam around with them catching salmon and sleeping with them in caves. He just went around for a couple of months observing them. He did get too close to them at times which could have upset the bears, but it certainly wasn't as bad as the damage hunters would do to them. He was mostly alone too so he didn't make a huge impression, perhaps unlike documentary makers who probably disturb the wildlife more than they would ever admit to with all their gadgets beeping and buzzing, crews of probably at least a dozen people, helicopters flying overhead every few hours, etc. His intentions for being there were to make sure they were being properly protected by the authorities. He visited the area for 13 years and gave free lectures across the country to teach people about bears. He didn't make any money from doing what he did. It seemed he just felt at home in the wilderness and amongst the wild. Whether one feels that is wrong or looney tune behavious is up to the individual, but he seemed like a genuine guy with a big heart to do nothing but good so I'm not going to grudge him for that.

Hey if he enjoyed it and didn't mind getting eaten by an ungrateful bear for his hard work, then more power to him

He was quite unfortunate because the year he got eaten, he'd actually left and went to get his flight out of Alaska but his ticket was invalid. So he decided to go back for a little while, but when he did the bears who would have gotten familiar with his over the years had mostly went into hibernation and it was an old desperate bear who killed him and his girlfriend.
