Bear Defence - BAD ADVICE ONLY

[pescador]

7mm rem mag is not good for grizzly ... heard multiple times at the lgs by the same guy over and over ...

what his reason? not enough "stopin power" or "them skinny bullets just bore right through em" ive heard both of these before

Go for the bears nose. They are extremely sensitive and a punch to the nose will send a bear running

Helped a friend mill planks off many huge trees his rural property. Then we got around to building several tree stands on his property. The one day of about thirty weekend days I left my 44 trapper at home.
This was the day a 250 pound single male black bear was within mere feet of me and behind myself and I was totally unaware it's presence.
A friend started the Husqvarna chain saw to scare it off.

Yeah........

Talk about how guns are useless and pepper spray is better against bears. Then when you see one: scream, panic, run, and forget you are the one with the spray.

Shout of to my British mother in law. IDIOT.

The worse advice.....Don't worry , no one needs a gun to protect themselves from a wildlife attack , the govt. will always be there to protect you .

Join your friends in the bush if you are the biggest in the group.

Stand 20 metres away and shriek "BEAR!" in an extremely loud falsetto voice. We've all seen it done on video but here it is again because you've all been bad:

You only need your cell phone, just call the cops.

Within the lieberal party sucking Canada dry, this event would qualify her as thier newest minister of natural resources.

Wow that was funny! I have never seen that video before. Thanks for sharing. You can clearly tell she is one of those kids who grew up with everyone getting a first place ribbon.

On a serious note, my advice is what I have been personally doing for over 30 years. When your in the bush, bring a chihuahua with you. See a bear and let the chihuahua go. 99 times out of 100 a chihuahua will scare the bear away...the other 1% when the bear is not scared? Well that is interesting to watch as well...

Punch it in the nose and make your retreat while it's sneezing.

 

[razorbeck]

That video is enough to make you cheer for the bear

 

[dogger1]

i was selling hunting and fishing trips in denver, colorado to american clients. American guy walks up to a booth next to ours and asks the other canadian outfitter if he carried a hand gun for "grizzly bear defence".. Outfitter looks at the guy and says "yeah i have a .44mag revolver i carry with the front sight shaved off smooth. American guys face was all confused and asks "why would you do that? Outfitter says with a straight face "so when the bear shoves it up my a$$ it will hurt less"... The american guy was not too pleased with the response. I think he was hoping for some serious wisdom about to be dropped on him...

lmfao!

She for sure lives in the city in a condo with a big goofy dog (also named bear) that eats her stuff.

Carry Chuck Norris in your backpack. Sure, he’s heavier than most firearms but as the old time saying goes, “the best defense is a good Chuck Norris”.
