An angry grizzly mother is moving in on them from 100 feet away and Ryan says, "You got that uh,... bear spray?" as calm as could be like he was bumming a cigarette.

[@rabooey]

Yep. Calm. And stupid is hell. They needlessly put seven lives at higher risk because they didn't prepare even though they had minutes of time to. One person spray, the other ready to fire if the sow persists after being sprayed. It was a disgusting display of two professional, well-seasoned hunter being complete jackasses.

@@rabooey you sound like a pro, what service is your hunting show streamed on?

[@mercklemore]

@@rabooeydunno, they could've handled it better, but I don't know if it was as dumb a response as you make it out to be. I've gotta assume the camera operator had their own spray as well and I hope they were ready on it. But the bear never really came close enough to use it, if you think you're about to get charged, there's no point spraying when its 50+ft out. Warning shot should've come sooner, and they should've radio'd to the guy below before this happened to warn him - but we don't know if that already happened or when thanks to the movie magic of an edited show.

I fell over and ran home. Had many more encounters with 1 coming up a steep mountainside through thick forest and being 3’ away. Scared the hell out of us and the bear who ran away.

[@_theHUMUNGUS]

Cal's "stay together" commands are so conscientious. That's much more about firearms safety than bear safety. If they split up and one of them has to fire at the bear again, there's a real chance the rest of the crew will be on the wrong end of gunfire. That guy is a true outdoorsman, level-headed and always thinking even when-perhaps especially when- there's nearly a ton of "I will eat you" running right at him.

[@FictionWeLiveIn]

I think the few minute segment where they deal with the mama grizzly is the perfect example of a good, professional, knowledgeable group. The camera guys got the shot without doing anything they shouldn't have, it's Steve's show but he shut up and listened to Ryan when the the heat was on, Ryan stayed calm and collected and directed everybody perfectly, they waited till they were clear before going to find Janis. It's beautiful to watch because all I can think is I'd have urine running down one leg and would've tripped and fell a few times.

[@nda7652]

If Ryan wasn't there Steve would have been a bear snack. He was just looking around the other direction like he was looking for butterflies. Then he acted like he didn't even hear him ask if he had that bear spray. To finish off he loses his balance and fumbled his gun when she charged. For someone who is literally a professional hunter for that moment he acted like he was 100% oblivious to the gravity of the situation. Unbelievable!!

Why not learn

It's nice to see the place you call home ( northern BC resident) spoken of with the appreciation it disserves. May you never be a bear snack boys.

Cal: "Let's make a little bit of noise, let her know that somebody's here." Steve: Meh. Cal: "You see her?" Steve: Meh. Cal: "You got that, uh, bear spray?" Steve: Meh Bear charges Steve: AAAACK I'M NOT READY!

HAHAHA!!! LMFAO!

The government shut down the grizzly season here in BC in 2017. I hope they reopen it soon because I would love to hunt one.

[@MichaelJacobi687]

do you think they ever will?

[@danielzdanivsky4984]

@@MichaelJacobi687 They’ll have to eventually, but it will still be a while yet. Reopening it would be a political suicide in today’s climate.The only thing that will change that would be for a few people to get mauled, which is bound to happen sooner or later if we don’t keep their numbers down.

Outstanding Callaghan. Cold blood and real class hunter. Chapeau.

Ryan is the real pro here. Makes Steven look like a rookie

8:45 I'm new here. I was originally thinking: This is set up kind of like TV, even though you seem like a youtuber and gives a way more genuine feeling to it, but TV wouldn't usually put themselves in danger. Then the bear showed up and I am sorry for doubting you.

Captured and collared many grizzly bear in this area. Always carry bear spray. Your rifle will do you no good when it's on top of you. Grizzly bear, in particular, are super skittish animals. A sow with cubs or a fresh kill are the only thing you need to worry about. Make noise and you will be fine.

[@JeffyPDiddy]

I love Steve, but that encounter with the mother grizzly was painful to watch. Not saying I could do any better, but it felt like amateur hour. Glad he is leaning from it.

[@yibberishgibberish]

Thank you for uploading up the seasons, literally I count down the days until I can see another :)

[@yibberishgibberish]

Is there a way I can pay for these seasons? Like how do I give you my money?

[@AMGWCLass]

@@yibberishgibberish aren’t they on Netflix ? Just pay for Netflix and see them

[@glassontherocks]

The bears here in Oregon come running when they hear a gunshot. They had claimed several elk last season that hunters had dropped. They are smarter than the average bear.

[@besto764]

Got to say it doesn't matter if they're successful or not in the hunt. The highest compliment I can pay is I'm not a hunter or gun enthusiast but I love this show, like I say successful hunt or not.
