This time it is bears again, acting very unusual. “COLUMBIA STATION, Ohio – A bear owned by a man who used to offer people the chance to wrestle the animals mauled its 24-year-old caretaker to death during a feeding on property ….

Brent Kandra, of Elyria, died Friday morning at MetroHealth Medical Center, the coroner’s office in Cleveland said. He had been taken by medical helicopter after the Thursday evening attack in Columbia Township.

The bear was out of its cage for its feeding, “which was normal for this particular bear because the caretaker and the owner had been around it so much,”

Animals no longer show fear of Man, what do they know?

This blog has chronicled the rise of unusual attacks on humans by animals, a prelude to 2012.  This blog believes that these unusual attacks come from the animals sensing  the END of the Dominion of Man. Now these unusual attacks are invading suburban areas, by animals who are very wise about guns(See Below)

“The attacker pounced from behind a large rock as 3-year-old Erika Attar played outside her home. “Mommy!” shrieked a playmate as the girl struggled to break free. Erika’s father dashed across the yard, and the startled predator vanished into the dusk.

Police issued an alert to warn locals of what had become frighteningly clear: Rye has coyotes, and the ones prowling the leafy town have engaged in some un-coyote-like behavior, such as ambushing children in residential neighborhoods. On June 29, the Tuesday after the first attack, two coyotes dashed across a sidewalk and leapt on Emily Hodulik, 6, as she played outside her home.”This is an extraordinary situation we’re dealing with,” the police commissioner, William Connors, told a town meeting. “There will always be a crisis … but this is certainly the most unusual one I’ve encountered in 30 years in this business.”

Both girls survived with cuts and scratches, 

. Black bears, white-tailed deer and coyotes have lived near residential areas for decades, but encounters with their human neighbors usually are accidental. That seems to be changing, at least for coyotes, who have popped up everywhere from Manhattan’s cafe-lined streets to Columbia University to the golf courses, cemetery and main drag of downtown Rye. Dogs, cats and now children have been targets.

Simply tranquilizing the animals and releasing them elsewhere won’t fix the problem because the coyotes prowling Rye clearly have lost their shyness around humans, city officials say.

In addition to the shoot-to-kill orders, the campaign includes measures that sound more suitable to a counter-insurgency campaign than an animal infestation. Helicopters equipped with infrared heat-seeking devices have been called in for aerial surveillance to assist ground forces pursuing coyotes; traps have been set in wooded areas; a special coyote-focused police unit has been established.

Summer day camps have received special attention. Counselors are urged to carry air horns to blast at approaching coyotes. But no coyotes have been shot, evidence of their elusive nature and of the risks of waging urban warfare in a populated suburb.

Shortly after Erika was jumped, police spotted a coyote in the cemetery but couldn’t open fire because of nearby traffic. The night after Emily was attacked, officers saw a coyote trotting through a golf course, a woodchuck in its mouth.

As the police car drove parallel to the animal, the coyote occasionally stopped and glanced at its pursuers, holding tight to its furry prey. When the car stopped and an officer aimed his gun at the coyote, Connors said, it dropped the woodchuck and “took off like a shot.”

LOUISVILLE, Ky. – A hiker who was attacked by a black bear in eastern Kentucky …

The Kentucky Department of Fish and Wildlife Resources says the incident Sunday was the first recorded bear attack on a person in the state.

Scott, 56, of Springfield, was hiking in the Red River Gorge Geological Area ahead of his wife and son on Sunday when he spotted the bear about 25 feet away. He said it appeared to be about 150 pounds and he took a few photos with his cell phone until the bear disappeared under a ledge. Scott said he was about to call his wife to tell her to take another trail when the bear reappeared.

Scott said he yelled and dropped his belt bag hoping to distract the animal. But the bear sniffed it and continued approaching Scott, who grabbed a rotted branch.

Alone, Scott hit the bear with the flimsy branch, but the animal kept coming.

Scott tried to move behind a tree for protection a couple of times, but he said the bear grabbed him by the leg and threw him into the woods. Then, it sank its teeth into his thigh and shook him.

Scott said he crawled over to the other hikers and the group backed down the path for a quarter mile, with the bear following them.

Black bears, which were common in Kentucky more than 100 years ago, disappeared due to over-hunting and loss of habitat. Over the past 20 years, they have found their way back from neighboring states such as Tennessee, Virginia and West Virginia. ”

Hunters were combing the snowy brush around Chignik Lake, Alaska, on Friday in an attempt to hunt down up to four wolves that killed a 32-year-old special education teacher in the first known fatal wolf attack in the U.S. in modern times.

But the wolves were elusive, and villagers were hoping that state game officials would send in a helicopter to help track the animals, Village Council President Johnny Lind said.

“They’ve been looking and scouting around, and the wolves are definitely still around, but they’re smart, and they take off before you can get close to them,” Lind said.

Candice Berner, a special education teacher who traveled among several rural schools on the Alaska Peninsula, 475 miles southwest of Anchorage, was attacked while jogging and listening to her iPod Monday evening on the deserted, 3-mile-long road that leads out from the village to its small airstrip.

A native of Slippery Rock, Pa., she had been working in Alaska only since August. Her body was found by snowmobilers a short time after the attack. It had been dragged off the road and partially eaten, and was surrounded by wolf prints.

……the wolves have been increasingly threatening to people in the area,” said Megan Peters, spokeswoman for the Alaska State Troopers. “They’ve been getting too close, circling, making people fearful for their safety.”

Christi Aleck, another resident of the village, said that while there are always wolves in the area, three to four have been lingering unusually close over the past week or so and have been sighted again since the attack.

“They come in at nighttime, not very far from the village, and they’re just kind of watching,” she said. “They’re waiting for somebody else to go out again, I guess.”

“People are scared. Oh yeah, they’re scared,” she said. “Nobody’s walking around anywhere. I mean, wolves have always hung around in the wintertime, but they’ve never attacked anyone.”

The only known previous fatal wolf attack in North America over the last 100 years occurred in 2005, when a young geology student was attacked and partially eaten by a pack of wolves in northern Saskatchewan.”

On Novemer 1st 2000, the  TV show, THE SIMPSONS ran an episode, NIGHT OF THE DOLPHIN, about a dolphin who decides to wreck a terrible vengeance on humans.

Since then I have been a fervent follower of strange animal attacks on humans. Lately, perhaps as a run up to 2012, every animal imaginable has been killing humans…kangaroos, wolves,dogs,moose, and now whales.

WHALE KILLS TRAINER

“ORLANDO, Fla. – Officials in Floridasay a veteran 40-year-old trainer at SeaWorld was killed by a whale …He says the trainer was one of the park’s most experienced.

Spectator Victoria Biniak told WKMG-TV that the trainer had just finished explaining to the audience a show they were about to see Wednesday when the whale appeared to grab the trainer and thrash her around.

Brown says SeaWorld has never experienced an incident like this.”

Now check out the plot of THE NIGHT OF THE DOLPHIN,

“While at Springfield’s Marine World, Lisa takes pity on the star attraction — a dolphin named Snorky, whose trainers let him be humiliated and forced to do demeaning stunts for the crowd’s amusement. After Snorky’s latest show, Lisa sets the dolphin free to swim in the ocean. Unbeknownst to Lisa, Snorky is actually the leader of the world’s dolphins bent on leading his army to destroy humanity. The dolphins begin their war by attacking Springfield, first killing Lenny during a night swim in the ocean and the Sea Captain (who claims he can stop them) before marching towards the town on their tails. Snorky then interrupts a town meeting, takes the stage and tells Springfield that dolphins used to live on land, but were banished to the ocean by humans, and, now that Snorky has reclaimed his throne as king, he banishes all mankind to live underwater. The humans decide not to submit to the dolphins’ will without a fight…only to leave town hall to find the dolphins greatly outnumber them. As the humans walk out of the hall, Lisa sees a small dolphin with a set of bottle rings around its face, she takes it off, and is bitten. Furious, Homer retaliates by punching the dolphin, and then encourages the townspeople to fight back. A battle ensues between the dolphins and the humans, with heavy casualties on both sides. Homer leads the survivors in a final charge to drive the dolphins back to the sea. In a twist ending, it’s revealed that humanity has lost and the residents of Springfield are now adjusting to their new life as marine animals.”

“the improbable has become probable”

The Swedish Police found this murdered woman in the forest, and suspected her husband to  be the killer.

He wasn’t; a moose, you know one of those cute herbivores, BAMBI’s cousin, is now suspected of killing her.

Animals that never attack people are killing people all over the world; again this blog asks, is this the end of the Dominion of Man?

by THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

The tabloid Expressen says hairs and saliva from a moose - aka a European elk - were found on the victim’s clothes. “

We are constantly being told that certain species will not attack man; yet these species ARE attacking men.

“Kangaroos rarely attack people”

MELBOURNE, Australia – A kangaroo startled by a man walking his dog attacked the pair, pinning the pet underwater and slashing the owner in the abdomen with its hind legs.

The Australian, Chris Rickard, was in stable condition Monday after the attack, which ended when the 49-year-old elbowed the kangaroo in the throat. He said he was walking his blue heeler, Rocky, on Sunday morning when they surprised a sleeping kangaroo in Arthur’s Creek northeast of Melbourne. The dog chased the animal into a pond, when the kangaroo turned and pinned the pet underwater.

When Rickard tried to pull his dog free, the kangaroo turned on him, attacking with its hind legs and tearing a deep gash into his abdomen and across his face.

“I thought I might take a hit or two dragging the dog out from under his grip, but I didn’t expect him to actually attack me,” Rickard, 49, told The Herald Sun newspaper. “It was a shock at the start because it was a kangaroo, about 5 feet high, they don’t go around killing people.”
