The Grizzly

 

If I were a Grizzly for a summer I would charge anyone I saw taking my picture. I would go and to check the houses in the villages, and if they tried to shoot me I would run away from them.

I will be a male Grizzly and be kind of big. I will throw the little cubs down and eat them up, and I'll bother the female bears that come around or even if I see any. If I ever see a cub I will charge to let the cub get scared. I will not be in the mating season. I will be really mischief and break up camp sites and tear up tents and eat the humans' grub that they bring along with them. I will fight other bears and show them who is the boss. When I go to small streams and clear riverswhere other bears hang out and catch fish, when they catch a fish I will take it from them and eat allI want. I will throw moose calves all over the place then eat them up later in the day. I'll eat a really long time till it is August, and then I'll hibernate before the other bears, and wake up before the others wake up. Then I will fight anything I see in sight. I will be the meanest bear in the forest. I will be mean to little cubs that are far away from their mothers and let the female get mad at me and try to catch me. I will try not to get my butt kicked when I fight bigger and stronger bears but just let them get really mad at me.
