A tourist looking for wildlife in China’s northwestern Xinjiang Province got more than he bargained for when a brown bear charged at his car. The man, Mr. Quan, had spotted the wild animal by the side of the road and started filming it on his mobile phone when the bear suddenly rushed towards him, CCTV reported. Quan told CCTV that he and his friends at first thought the bear was a Tibetan Mastiff dog wandering on the grassland. Local officials in charge of wildlife protection in Emin County told CCTV that it was very unusual to see a bear wandering so close to the road in the daytime.

Posted on April 30, 2011 at 3:41pmAt first, I was really surprised to hear of this bear-on-tourist encounter in CHINA of all places. They’re not exactly known for their preservation of animals. Then, when I read further that it was in Xinjiang Province it made sense. That place is still quite wild and sparsely populated. I’m all about eating a bearclaw or two, and China is no different, except over there it isn’t the Dunkin Donuts variety.
