Neil deGrasse Tyson Has A Haunting Question About Bears

Neil deGrasse Tyson Has A Haunting Question About Bears
Hmmm...

Neil deGrasse Tyson is known for using his Twitter account to tackle everything from urgent scientific issues to pop culture. But on Sunday, he took to social media to wonder about bears ― and, in particular, one potential feature of a bear-led world.

The astrophysicist, author, host of “Star Talk” and “Cosmos,” and director of the Hayden Planetarium in New York, wrote:

If Bears were in charge, after they hunted us to near-extinction, I wonder if they’d invent a candy called Gummy Humans.

Tyson’s tweet drew more than 1,000 replies, including these:

As one of the worlds foremost astrophysicists, is that really the most important thing you could be contemplating?

Oh, by the way, my wife wants to know if they’d have gusher centers?
