A Russian scientist and a Czechoslovakian scientist had spent their lives
studying the grizzly bear. Each year they petitioned their respective
governments to allow them to go to Yellowstone to study the bears.
Finally their request was granted, and they immediately flew to NY and on
West to Yellowstone. They reported to the ranger station and were told that
it was the grizzly mating season and it was too dangerous to go out and
study the animals. They pleaded that this was their only chance, and finally
the ranger relented.
The Russian and the Czech were given portable phones and told to report in
every day. For several days they called in, and then nothing was heard from
the two scientists.
The rangers mounted a search party and found the camp completely ravaged,
with no sign of the missing men. They followed the trail of two bears, a
male and a female.
They found the female and decided they must kill the animal to find out if
she had eaten the scientists because they feared an international incident.
They killed the female animal and opened the stomach to find the remains of
the Russian. One ranger turned to the other and said, "You know what
this means, don't you?"
The other ranger responded, "Of course..."
"The Czech is in the male.""
