SSS, eh?
“...two grizzlies approaching the kill, feeding on it, and even wrestling with each other.”
Personally, I’ve always found that wrestling after dinner promotes indigestion.
Yeah, I try to squeeze a movie in there.
How about a limited Griz season?
Or, a “landowners can protect their livestock” rule?
(I believe that was the point of the earlier “SSS” post)
...but....2 griz is a LOT of diggin’!
One must assume that in Canada grizzlies are a protected species like polar bears due to Global Warming and advanced bureaucratic brain rot.
Canada Ping!
TS Jack.
They’re protected, you’re not.
That’s why we invented big damn rifles.
Need a good rifle in the right caliber. Remington 700.
Suggested Calibers
.338 Win Mag
.338 Remington Ultra Mag
.375 H&H Mag
.375 Remington Ultra Mag
8mm Remington Mag
But he is in Canada. I’m not sure he can own a rifle. The .375 H&H or the Ultra Mag would get my vote. BTW not for casual plinking. These are real shoulder thumpers.
12 gauge running .50 caliber sabot slugs should do the job.
Sure would!
I don’t often hunt Grizzly bears but when I do
I prefer a powerful rifle.
(so I can make it back to camp for a few Dos Equis)
So we did.
[Yeah, I know it's a shotgun.]
You can hunt Grizzlies in BC.
I learned (while in Montana) that Grizzlies are more at home in the plains, hunting the likes of cattle, than in the mountains.
It explains why they can’t climb trees like black bear can.
Saw some grizzlies a few years ago while crossing the Rockies from Alberta to B.C. Drove through Cranbrook back into the U.S.
1st mistake.. mentioning this to anyone....
2nd mistake.... not buying a bear dog.. and a shovel..
LOL yep....Our ancestors got rid of the large predators cause they didn’t want to end up their dinner...now we have silly people bringing them back, but not it their own backyards..
Yep, there is a reason they paid bounties for wolves.
back at the turn of the 20th cent. my father was a farm boy and they paid a one penny bounty of crows...problem was a shot gun shell cost a penny...so he soaked a lot of grain overnight in whiskey...the crows got drunk and couldn’t fly. He said he could get 5 or 6 with his penny shell...those boys knew how to make money...:O)
