Sorry, but why is this on the front page? 63 deaths in 43 years. Im actually surprised only that many have been hit.
I love curiosities as much as the next person, but I’m getting the sense someone’s trying to make a mountain out of a molehill here.

- myrmidon 3y agoI agree that this is not very front page relevant, but its still a lot of animals dying-- since the local bear population is <2000, 1.5 fatalities per year are quite significant! Compare to just ~700 human railway fatalities in the US (population: >300M)-- if railways were similarly lethal for us, the would be over 200000 deaths per year.
