With mating season underway, crowds flocking to the Bow Valley Parkway have led to dangerous traffic jams and safety concerns—Parks Canada has enforced a no-stopping zone to keep both people and bears safe. Meanwhile, a younger bear named Split Lip may be poised to take over, already inspiring “showdown” t-shirts. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
