This was a terrible article to read, how his family must be feeling.
I remember reading an article on bears years ago, USA or Canada, no longer sure. But this man reconed he could stop a bear with a shotgun coming straight at him. Others where saying a shotgun would never stop a bear in a million years. Then years later I saw a video on the BBC of a bear chasing a deer of some kind, those dam bears can really run, it caught the young deer.
I have often thought I like to do a horse back trail ride for a month in Canada, once in a life time thing, crazy ol fool, lol. But when I read this news I realize the truth about the great outdoors, it can be dramatic to say the least if you meet a bear on the trial, even if you do have a gun.
