My exact thoughts also. I read somewhere that when a black bear attacks a human it useually kills where aswhen a grissly attacks it useually maims, that is why you are told to play dead when a grissly attacks. I think I read that in the story where a person was killed in Tenn. a few weeks ago by a black bear. Anyway, glad another person was present to put the blackie down. Very few details were given, hope more come out.
