Know your place on the food chain, realize what got you there, and apply it. After a few times of getting "lucky" I don't go into the woods without some type of firearm. If they don't allow them there, I don't go there.

I'm surprised no one's piped in to tell us how this story is unpossible - since black bear don't kill/eat people!
Yeah. I'm sure someone'll be along shortly . . . ETA: "kill" has a "k"! LOL |

I guess we're going to have to gather up all the bears and have them attend a "people awareness" class.
Once the bears are aware, that will stop those large carnivorous beasts from attacking unarmed people out in the woods. Posted Via AR15.Com Mobile |

Quote HistoryQuoted: Perfect bear gun. Quote HistoryQuoted: Quoted: That sucks, but I still can't comprehend why the hell people go hiking in bear country unarmed.  You know, supposedly there is a way to get those in NY but I have never seen anyone do it. At a minimum I think I would have skeddadled rather than taking five pictures of a black bear. I did have a black bear tear apart my campsite once as a teenager. I actually woke up, saw the bear from the lean to I was sleeping in and went back to sleep We had our food WAY up in a tree in a bear bag. But looking back there may have been a lack of discpline about dishes/trash etc that attracted him |
