I want to clarify a point I made about bear safety. The only time that anyone would want to fight back against a Grizzly Bear is when the bear Is mauling you continuously. Other strategies such as bear spray or rolling use into a ball are appropriate.

Re: The Bear Blog

DrFumblefinger ·
I really enjoyed this post and your beautiful photos! Makes me want to head into the bush to see if I can see some bears again.

If safe, I love to pull off the road and take a good look, maybe take some...
