Both men love the great outdoors and would usually camp near a beautiful wide river for the fishing was perfect. The two men had been friends for many years and had great trust for each other. One of the men was a veteran who had been injured during the war. He walked slowly and with some difficulty as the two were traveling together through the woods. One day they stopped to rest in a clearing of the trees. The vet was sitting on the ground while his friend leaned on a tree. Suddenly, out of the woods, a huge and hungry black bear appeared.

What did he say as the vet brushed the dirt from his clothes, he told his friend, the bear was pretty smart. He might even have been the smartest bear I have ever heard of. All he told me was this.
