I read an AP story this week where Fish and Game said they didn't need to shoot that bear.
It probably wasn't the bear in their camp, wasn't a threat to them and should have been cited for attracting them with reckless food storage. They also said shooting the bear would have made better scripting for the show.
What I find unconsionable is the absolute destruction they did to that piece of land. They should have put things back in a reasonable condition before leaving. The term 'rape and pillage' come to mind.

Guess that was the reason Todd had to find another location!
I can only figure Discovery is going to do 2 crews now for Gold Rush Alaska. Fred's and Todd's!

But there is so darned much red tape involved in anything you do today it destroys the will of a lot of us. Yes this group didn't know what they were doing but they are learning, just the way many of us do, trial and error. How did the old timers ever survive without someone holding their hand and telling them their every move? The way I see it we're being told If you haven't spent at least a grand for paperwork before you start you have no business doing it. Oh, I forgot there's the Lawyers fees, God forbid we didn't cross that "T" cause you may be sued. Not one of us criticizing their operation had the kahunas to do what they did. Sorry Klondike apparently you do. But do you think some inspiration may have come from witnessing their operation? Wayne
