Article Abstract:

Timothy Treadwell was a fearless lover of bears and used to move very closely with bears without carrying any protective arms, along Katmai coast, Alaska. His girlfriend Amie Huguenard used to accompany him. Generally bears are neither cruel nor afraid of man, but a bear killed both Timothy and Amie. The circumstances and the errors committed by Timothy in moving with bears are analyzed and serve as lesson for others.
