Default Check out this bear!

I wanted to post this here because if some of you are like me; this is my "home" forum and I wanted you guys to see it.

I recieved this in an email today at work. We are always getting some electrical safety emails (that usually get deleted) b/c they go overboard. Most of the time about snakes hiding in underground transformers or shoes on power lines depicting a drug dealer's area. Notthis, I foundthis one quite interesting. This took place in Anchorage, Alaska near Kincaid Park.

When is a brown bear a black bear?

.........When he tries to eat through your 2400-volt feeder cable to a cathodic protection groundbed.

****I know this is not related to bowhunting but I thought you guys would like to see. .....the joke was included in the email BTW
