Hey, the bear's gotta eat too! Besides that, the bear would be doing itself and the rest of the environment a big favor by offing one of them anyway, so good riddance! I really don't think that the PETA freak would stand much of a chance anyway. First of all, most of the hard core militant vegan I've encountered weight maybe 125-135 soaking wet. Secondly, since the PETA types are typically radical liberal types as well, it's highly doubtful that they'd be in possession of a suitable trail gun for self defense. It all ads up to them being lunch meat for the bear.
One last bright side...eating the vegan might make the bear a tiny bit bigger, which is all the better for the hunter lucky enough to encounter it.
It's a win-win situation. Now how do we convince all the PETA freaks that their next publicity stunt should be to gather together in bear country, handcuff themselves to each other and the nearest tree, and cover each other with maple syrup, honey and jelly donuts? Wouldn't that be a hoot!?
