Bears eat keeper who took their bile
Bears eat keeper who took their bile


A Chinese man has reportedly been killed and eaten by six bears in Shulan, Jilin province.

Han Shigen earned a living by extracting bile from the gall bladders of his captive live bears, according to the Chinese state news agency Xinhua.

He was attacked on Monday morning while cleaning the animals' cage, Xinhua said, quoting the Beijing News.

Xinhua said the animals were so enraged that two hours passed before it was deemed safe enough to remove his body.

3. Could've used "Bite" where you have "Bolt".
Maintaining your alliteration.

Just a thought... A suggestion... OH,GAWD! PLEASE DON'T DELETE
THIS!

6. I'm assuming they "Bit" him before "Bolting" him.
Unless, being impolite bears, they didn't chew their food.

15. I'm with you!
The conditions are horrible. Simply horrible, and to do that to a live animal is the most despicable thing ever. He deserved to die, as do all those other mofos who do it.

13. I hope the bears get freed now,
but it's more likely someone else will take over the operation. Those poor bears. Too bad they don't eat ALL their tormentors.

14. I swear when I first read the title, I thought it said bible, not bile.
For that split second, I wondered what the hell bears were doing with a bible!
