Just black bears here.
I spend a lot of time in far north east PA. Its a woodsy area where black bear are common and among the locals, bear spray is the ubiquitous first line of defense. Its small to carry, effective and easy to rapidly discharge. Its also non-lethal to the animal which depending on your local laws may save you a lot of time and aggravation with the police and possibly the courts.
Now if you have the cool aplomb of an astronaut and can put 3+ rounds on target in the few seconds you will have while being charged by a large creature that wants to eat you, you could do worse than a Glock 20 sf 10mm. Youll have higher cap than with a revolver and Buffalo Bore makes a hard cast 220 gr. round that will deliver 1,200 fps. IMHO, not a bad second line of defense.
