I love my forest haven in the northeast - I would not care to live in griz country...but if there were something in the woods to be afraid of here - I’d also carry pepper spray (to hang next to my little Colt) = hmmm, there are those two legged animals...guess I’ll get me some pepper spray

Urbanites, take note. Feral creatures walk on two as well as four legs.

I remember a Tee Shirt that I saw while vacationing in Alaska some years back. I pictured some summer tourists standing outside their tour bus photographing a cute little frolicking bunny rabbit while a vicious grizzly loomed behind them. The caption was something like... “ALASKA: Step off the tour bus & into the food chain.” I couldn’t stop laughing!

I just watched “Grizzy Man” again last night on the Animal Planet channel. If I didn’t know this was a serious documentry I’d sware it was satire making fun of liberals.

Magnificent predators they are! I have a buddy who knows 2 people, both armed, who were mauled by brown (grizzly) bears. Their handguns were holstered, and neither could draw in time to get off a shot before the attack. The bears silently snuck up on them, then rushed them, from the side, and from behind.

I'd keep some on hand as "gifts" but I don't have no truck with liberals, so I save the money.

I do however, write a column and have recommended carrying them when going out into the wilds - knowing that only the libRats are dumb enough to get them....and then I hope the story of the little mounds of brass bells is half true...me bad

Bears can be good hunters.

They can easily circle back for a sneak attack.

...and no, I’m not suggesting people walk around with the severed forelimbs of a grizzly!
