@@mrsinkzn I think your anger is a bit misguided. We are all upset at what happened and of course we feel sympathy towards the victims, but to wish that all bears were extinct is ridiculous. We are encroaching on their territory, interfering with their environment, and depriving them of their natural food sources. What happened there is unfortunate, but it is also preventable. The bears have no malice, they are just doing what bears do. Mothers protect their babies and starving bears look for food. That doesn't make them evil, it just makes them wild animals. The only ones that actually have evil motives are humans. Don't get me wrong, if a bear is threatening people it needs to go down, but for you to want to exterminate all bears is not only misguided, it's moronic and I'd also say malicious.

Picked him up like a football and ran towards my truck, where my shotgun was laying on tailgate. My son dropped him 10ft away from me & terrified precious boy. I put boy on the tailgate and shot one more time for safe measure Over muscle twitching but my son killed him instantly. That child was from different camp, Whos urbanite parents thought it was safe for him to wonder off. Thank god my son countered my reaction & had a accurate shot. I just reacted, i didnt know him but I went in momma bear protecting baby mode on a male bear during hyperphagia. Not one day goes by do i regret that decision.

This is typically only true if they have little to no experience with people. They’re not as timid as once would expect, and I say this as someone from BC with multiple black bear encounters. There’s a huge issue with black bears becoming accustomed to people and all that comes with us. Believe it or not, but in Canada black bears are actually responsible for around 70% of all incidents. Although their attacks are typically defensive rather than predatory. Grizzles do make up for the largest amount of fatal attacks but at the end of the day never underestimate a black bear. Due to being more skittish by nature they’re easier to spook into a defensive attack.

[@mrdark9916]

​​​@@kaelinn510actually you have that backwards.. black bear attacks are actually much more likely to be predatory in nature, while Grizzly attacks are majority defensive. This is why you play dead for grizzly, and not for black bear. Because if a black bear is attacking you it is likely actively intending to eat you and playing dead will not help, while playing dead is often effective in the end for a grizzly attack. So its kind of a catch-22.

What happened with the couple in Banff National Park in Canada who used 2 cans of bear spray and still were killed and partially consumed ? Look it up. Or the Todd Orr attack 😮 where the bear attacked him twice and the bear spray didn't work ? Plus black bears are less affected and recover faster from bear spray. Best to take as many forms of defense as you can, including a good knife. Many have saved their lives with a sturdy hunting knife. Often it happens so fast you don't have time to shoot or use spray. What works in one case may not in another and bear spray isn't 100 % effective. Even carrying a weapon isn't a guarantee if it happens fast and bears are faster than a race horse. Many times it's just luck or in a defensive attack, the bear puts you down, you don't move and it walks away. But black bears you should fight back. Everyone has a plan until there's a bear in your face, I will never judge anyone because idk what it's like and I hope I would have time and do the right thing and make a great shot to stop it. But sometimes bears have to be shot several times. No 2 situations are alike because no 2 bears are alike. You just try to be prepared, and practice with your defenses.

These people, the ones who didn't run away, the ones that stayed and helped, the ones who heard from a distance and went to help, these people are heros! That was so disturbing to watch, my whole body was tense the whole time and the noise of bones being crushed, my god! You don't read about bear attacks so I didn't think it was that common, but it seems they are very common. Don't go into bear territory, don't risk your lives, those animals are bloody huge!

I worked a lot in bear territory, in Canada. And carried bear banger and bear spray. And had bell on my vest.

Having that bear spray and not knowing how to use it. !?

Even a gun won't stop it unless you have a semi-automatic rifle.

It happens with fire extinguishers too

These events are ABSOLUTELY TERRIFYING! I have always had the utmost respect for bears! Same reoccurring dream since I was a child that I was being attacked by a bear. And yet, I continue to be fascinated by them.( pretty wierd, huh?) My heart goes out to those that have lost loved ones or felt the fury of these creatures😢...
