#3 And if the bear comes back in a few weeks' time, she'll have marrows. It would be murder.

#4 Then it refused to back off when she tried to separate them, its second mistake.

Bulldog, zucchini is American for marrow. It's just that we prefer to eat them when they're young and tender, you Brits prefer to let them mature, growing considerably larger with a hard, winter-squash exterior.

#6 Apparently the bear's eaten zucchini before.
