One fatal bear attack where a handgun was used.
Bears don’t attack people, its all lies. Its those vorpal bunnies framing us!
Bear spray is for the thugs that vandalize artwork in museums and chain themselves together to block roads to protest oil.
An important factor missing in evaluating bear spray effectiveness is whether or not the spray can was expired. People may not know it’s only good for about a year and at a cost of over $30 they may try to use it anyway.
I just had a young black bear the size of a large dog come onto my back porch and front porch right up to the sliding glass doors. He didn’t try to get in but if he did I wasn’t holding a can of spray.
I keep bear spray handy for rogue leftists.
I carry a .45 for bears. Copper jacketed tungsten core rounds.
Don’t take deodorant to a bear fight. Like tobasco sauce for them. 🐻🍛
Spray ticks them off. Bullets keep them at bay.
Bear Spray = 308
I survived determined charge by a young male black bear. I hit him 4 times at close range with a .308 loaded with 150gr jacketed soft points. The first shot homogenized his brain and he kept coming. I presently live in NW Montana with black and grizzly bears. I will never trust my life to Bear spray.
There is no substitute for 44 magnum or a 10 mm.
Don’t dare go into brown bear territory without carrying pepper spray and wearing bells.
How do you know when you’re in brown bear country?
The bear scat smells of peppers and has bells in it.
