I know there's plenty of stuff that gets generated by the internet that could be discouraging... but things like this happen that help counteract that.
So a while ago someone posted this picture of a park ranger with a bear cub and some people commented on it on tumblr:
And it just kind of snowballed from there.





Until finally this happened:

Yeah, that officer now has a mug with a cartoon version of herself with the bear. 
The creative power of people and the capacity of the internet to be a platform for sharing that creativity makes me so happy.
