My favorite part of that documentary is when they talked to an Indigenous professor from the area who said frankly that because his people actually do venerate the bears, they know to leave them the hell alone.

That Treadwell survived as many summers as he did is a testament to how much the bears would rather not. It was only when he stayed later than usual and resources were getting scarce that they finally ate him. I wouldn't feel bad about it at all if not for his poor girlfriend.
