For years, Michael and Shannon Gribbon's llama Ande was a woolly alarm system: When wildlife wandered on to the family's Rabbit Creek Road property Ande would make a noise that sounded like a hiccuping foghorn.
"Whenever we heard that, we knew there was a bear in the neighborhood," Shannon Gribbon said.
But in the 13 years the couple had lived on their two-acre home and barn spread with a menagerie of domesticated animals that has included full-size and miniature horses, the llama and a goat, they'd only encountered black bears.
On Sunday, three grizzly bears ended up on the Gribbon property.
By the end of the day, one of the bears was dead and so was Ande the llama.
