The guy in Koluszki survived polar bear attack. The bear jumped on him while he was sleeping in his tent and he managed to get it off of him and shoot it . I wonder where he had his gun from. Anyway it should be a warning for all you tourists planning to visit Poland early spring.

Polar bears are scary! Especially b/c they are too big to kill with a small caliber weapon.
Polar bear story is OK, but this amazing discovery story is great for 04/01.

I've always understood that the Brown Footed Mazurian Bear is far more dangerous than the pure white bear.
The Brown Footed has a habit of catching sailors and overturning boats on the lakes, in summer.

Fisherman take note! I think I am going to come to Poland site see and not fish or I am going to have to be allowed to cary a long gun.
Don,t shoot the bears.......if you are going to bear country there are things you can do to avoid becoming a bears dinner....most bear attacks occur because some muppet has got too close to one , or attracted it by leaving food near a campsite.....Killing them should be the last resort......
also falling for realy crap april fools should be a last resort .......

Since the bare subject came up Are there nude beaches in Poland as there are in other place?
Poznań has the best nude beach, but it is reserved for rude, crude, nude bears.

Quite true, just worry about the ordinary bears.
You know,........ the brown ones with big teeth.
Not to mention the wolves and wild boars too.
And giant worms with axes...and huge angry keilbasa...
Don't you believe we have a bears in Poland?

Nooo there are no bears...its a misspelling...its actually beans that they have in Polska , not bears....Heinz beans are the most aggressive...
I met bears two times in 80s in Tatra mountains - first seen from large distance while eating berries on the slope, second when he attacked a mountain shelter home Dolina Roztoki in the wake of food. In fact it was Eurasian brown bear (PL: Niedźwiedź brunatny, LA: Ursus arctos arctos) not grizzly, which is a larger subspecies. Third time there were only an alert from national park service about some bear winding in vicinity and attacking sheep.
So don't try to make fun of it. It's very serious ;-)

They are not real bears...its just Polish students in furry suits...dressing up to amuse the tourists...everyone knows this....
