BEAR TRACKS

One of the questions we get most often is "What is a bear?" which, when spoken by an adult, is a seriously ridiculous-sounding question.

 Especially in a state that features a bear on its state flag (SEEN HERE).

The second-most asked question is usually "Am I a bear?", 

which is a deeply personal question that only the individual can answer. 

But if you find yourself struggling with your own animal identity,

we've put together some existential prompts to ponder the next time 

you're in a deep, meditative state, or halfway through a six pack of 

"Tactical Nuclear Penguin Imperial Stout" (IYKYK).

• Are you comfortable in your own skin?
• Do you like having fun?
•  Do you enjoy laughing? 
• Do you greet every day with a sense of adventure?
•  Do you generally enjoy the company of other people except for the ones whose heads you'd rip off, if given the chance?
• Are you community focused? 
• Do you consider the phrase "All you can eat" to be a personal challenge?
• Are you comfortable speaking in public?
• How fresh do you like your salmon?
• Do you consider Boo-Boo to be an appropriate name for a child?
• Do you appreciate the heart of a person as much as any other organ?  

If you've answered "yes" to at least three of these questions, you're probably a bear. CONGRATLUATIONS!
