Bear This In Mind For Gun-Ku Contest

BEAR THIS IN MIND If you're walking in the wood And your dog's not looking good With a bear claw in his eye or flying through the summer sky. Hope you've packed the stuff you need Not just sleeping pills or speed But some gear that saves your life Like a sharpened hunting knife Whistles don't impress a bear His territory ‘s not to share If you want his rapt attention Walther's a keen intervention
