jdown Report post Posted April 22, 2021 That's just messed up. The bear told you to stay the F out once and then everyone has to run right up there and everyone get within 50 yards again. He's going to do the same dang thing. Put a sign up and up for a week or two and then go back and check it out. He'll move on. Just stupid Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Give it a week or two and close the area off in between. Rush right in there and I would expect the same results which end is putting the bear down. Just stay out for a few weeks and let him wander off. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I've never heard of a bear that has attacked someone being "left alone". Once they see humans as prey... I think its pretty much a done deal for that bear. I could be wrong though. I know less about bears than I do medieval cave art. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Asking for a friend!!! Not sure if that's a rhetorical question or not, but trauma can/does cause strokes. Specifically head trauma can do it. So the bear attack killed him (If you assume he wouldn't of had a stroke otherwise,....). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Why not kill the bear, or better yet, open grizzlies to hunting? If a bear ate my family member, I’d kill him if he was the last bear on earth. grizzlies should be available to hunt, anyways. Populations are recovered. We need to work on this. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
