So, what's the story here?
So, what’s the story here?

The place: The Alaskan Wilderness

Just a bear wanting some food!
Just a bear wanting some food!

The event: A private “fly-in” fishing excursion to that Alaskan wilderness.

Well, a bear would, wouldn't it!
Well, a bear would, wouldn’t it!

The mistake: The pilot and fishermen left a cooler and bait in the plane.

Now what?
Now what?

The consequence: The bear went exploring for food!

Nothing if not ingenious!
Nothing if not ingenious!

The smart thinking: The pilot used his radio and had another pilot bring him 2 new tires, 3 cases of duct tape, and a supply of sheet plastic.

And they all happily went home!
And they all happily went home!

The result: The pilot patched the plane together, and they all flew home!
