Grizzly Man Original vs Revision


    Original
 There is little disputing that Timothy Treadwell held a strange fascination with grizzly bears and nature in general. The look in his eye as he approached them, communicated with them and established himself in their communities was one of pure dedication. My initial response was that of shock and disbelief. Grizzly bears are some of nature’s fiercest predators. There are multiple scenes throughout the movie of the bears battling for territory and social order. It is appealing in a primal way. Timothy wasn’t attracted to these characteristics. He simply found the bears to be incredible creatures. He looked upon in awe as a mother would look upon her newborn. It was utter fascination. This was what Timothy truly loved, the way that many people feel a sense of fulfillment in their careers. He did what he loved, in reckless abandon of the consequences.

   I would hardly care to dispute Timothy Treadwell's fascination with grizzly bears and nature. The  gleam of his eye as he stalked and observed their behaviors indicated the purest dedication. Grizzly bears are some of nature's fiercest predators. There are multiple scenes throughout the movie of the bears ripping each other apart in battle for territory and social order. Timothy saw past the attraction of primal violence. He found the bears to be incredible animals and looked upon in awe as a mother would look upon her newborn. It was utter fascination. Timothy truly loved the bears and felt a sense of fulfillment in his life direction. He did what he loved, in reckless abandon of the consequences
