Sounds quite interesting. He was definetly having some fun at white man’s expense heh.
I don’t play with a bluff charge, if it’s coming it’s eating lead. By the time you figure out it’s not a bluff, it’s too late.
Around here we make noise, but they are used to it and I guess it makes them curious, you’ll see them come look around. Some track I saw the other day of a grizz is one I don’t want to meet. He had a massive track.
I sure love those wildlife training videos they show people. I can tell they were produced by liberals lol. Basically, if you followed their advice, you’d have a story with a terrible ending.
Above is a wolf attack that happened just prior to a job we did in a nearby village. Female school teacher from the Lower 48 on a jog, turned a corner, saw wolves, ran - couldn’t run fast enough. The interesting (and amazing from a tactical view, and spooky) - was a third wolf running parallel to her travel to box her in if needed.
On my last job up in Alaska the local said Alaska has the highest number of missing persons. He figured a lot of them were just guys that didn’t want to be found. But a lot of drownings, and a lot of animal deaths. A grizzly near his town was suspected of killing a guy and they killed it. They found the guy’s remains; and two others. “Yeah - those numbers they report on grizzly deaths - those are ‘confirmed’ deaths - I’m guessing the actual number is 4x as high.”
Of course the only bear we ended up seeing was a black bear running as fast as he could away from our truck as we were headed to the site. Which is fine by me!
