Timothy Treadwell: Quote for June 17, 2008

People who camp in grizzly country should camp out in the open to let the bears know where the tent is. My camp is unseen. It is the most dangerous camping, the most dangerous living in the history of the world by any human being. I have lived longer with wild brown grizzly bears without weapons, that's the key without weapons, in modern history than any human on earth, any human, and I've remained safe. But every second of every day that I move through this jungle or even at the tent, I am right at the precipice of great bodily harm or even death.
