Bears charge more than twinks.

Okay, that just made my blood run cold as ice. I can’t even imagine being torn apart by one of these bears. I even fear the name.

Beautiful but so deadly. Can we send two of these to Congress. They would take care if things pretty fast.

He was very lucky that the gunshot scared the griz away - it doesn't always work, particularly with bigger males in a large sleuth.

Climbing a tree doesn't help either. Sometimes only 6-8 well placed slugs from a 45 magnum will do the 'stop the charge' trick.

Maybe it’s just me but I think anyone entering grizzly country to do some filming while the bears have cubs is just begging to be eaten......

I have a somewhat keen reminder of what it’s like. I was at this ranch, dismounted with the horse out of reach, when a bear cub came running out of the treeline straight at me. It was probably thinking “How cute, a human”. I figured I was pretty much dead at that point, because the mama bear soon followed. Long story short, somehow I escaped unscathed, and the bear was later tracked down and shot.

It’s a good thing the bears were scared away by that first shot because he wasn’t going to get off a second one.

He bearly escaped. I guess the Mom just could not bear to eat him. :-)
