In May 2012, a Massachusetts black bear altered the course of history. WHO’S AFRAID OF THE CAPE COD BEAR? chronicles this Bear’s journey, in the context of debates about human coexistence with wildlife across much of North America. This bear captured the imagination,attention and hearts of kids and grown-ups, from backyards to newscasts, twitter to television, tourists to law enforcement, all hoping to catch a glimpse or even capture the elusive bear himself. The doc features insights from a wildlife biologist, veterinarian, zoo curator, park rangers, a Cape Cod writer, a Province town entrepreneur, a cub rescuer in Maine and a bear hunter in New Hampshire. The film asks-if bears are people with fur, who should adapt to whom and how?
