I've been spending time updating the Wikipedia article on Fatal bear attacks in North America. In addition to copyediting, I'm still working on finding all documented fatalities. I've been reading Stephen Herraro's Bear Attacks: Their Causes and Avoidance which is an excellent book.
Anyway, I'm curious if anyone can point me in the direction of another book or source where I can get more fatalities.
Also I happened upon this http://www.tennesseehistory.com/archive/GSMNPbear.html - there was a lawsuit by the family of the woman from Cosby who got mauled in the Smokys. Does anyone know what was the result of that?
If anyone needs help updating any hiking info in Wikipedia, let me know. Oh, and if you're looking for a great potential trivia question, look where the two fatal polar bear attacks in the 80s occurred...
Thanks.
