Disturbing Quote of the Day

This just in from my friend Vanessa McVay at the Wenatchee World, who noted, "I bet you never got stories like this in L.A."

Actually, stories of boundary issues with animals are a dime-a-dozen in LA.

the backstory:
Father/son mountain men in coos bay, oregon find an orphaned bear, raise it up to adulthood in their cabin, sleeping with it, eating with it, etc. wildlife people find out and take the bear away.

the disturbing quote:
"We treated her like a daughter.... We're hicks. We're mountain men," Perkett said. "We took her because she was dying and we loved her. The only thing we did wrong was love one another."
