My mates, sweet, oh so sweet.
« on: November 03, 2009, 10:52:18 PM »
Two armed militant commanders in the violence-torn Indian state of Jammu and Kashmir were killed by a bear after accidentally choosing its cave as their hiding place.
Troops in Shopian district found the two bodies while patrolling the area, an Indian defence spokesman said.
"Both bodies were mauled badly by some wild animal, and apparently by a bear, as the area is inhabited by Himalayan Black bear," Colonel J S Brar said.
The militants were armed with Kalashnikovs but did not get a chance to use them.

"The attack seems to have been so violent that both the militants got no chance to fire back at the wild animal," Colonel Brar added.
The cave appears to be have been the den of the bear.

On the contrary, these Himalayan Black Bears have to be applauded for their intelligence in this case, doing what we seem to be struggling to achieve.
We need a mahoooosive breeding programme to enable us to send herds of bears in I say.
