Obviously he watched too many of those YouTube videos of bears acting all cutesy.

Obviously he watched too many of those YouTube videos of bears acting all cutesyWhich is why bears make those videos - to lull humans into a false sense of security.

Obviously he watched too many of those YouTube videos of bears acting all cutesy. Probable more of he was afraid to defend himself from a federally protected killer. Big trouble if you can't prove you were actually in danger.

Black bears are not federally protected.
AR has a hunting season on them.
Being armed is a good idea.

Small bears carry bear spray? Who knew

I’m going mule deer hunting in bear country today.
Everyone carries a sidearm. There are bear, cougar, wolves, coyote, wild dogs and crazy people.
My 9mm is loaded with the first 6 rounds of Buffalo Bore Hardcast, which has been known to drill a hole from stem to stern of black bear. Not enough for grizzly, but I need the 16+1, 16, and 13 plus my rifle to take care of a wolf pack.

Didn’t know bears carried spray.
But skunks do.

My bear spray is a Ruger Redhawk 44 magnum which I carry with me whenever I go hiking. I’m confident it will be effective.

The bear didn't want to be photographed. He was in the witness protection program...😀
In all seriousness, prayers to the family.
To: FLT-bird
the biggest I have is a .357 Magnum. That goes with me into bear country on the infrequent occasions I camp out west.
Black bears in the east are nothing but big rodents and don’t really need extreme measures.
Blacks and grizzly’s are a completely different story.
