Another Bear Thread...

[Wild One]

I know there have been MANY threads regarding bears in the past here. This one is a little less controversial and really just a crazy story.

I did find this very interesting as posted on the story from the Utah DWR:

If a bear attacks
? Use bear spray. Then leave the area. Studies have shown bear spray to be 92 percent successful in deterring bear attacks.
? Shoot to kill. If you use a firearm, never fire a warning shot?aim for the center of the bear and keep firing until it is dead. Notify the Division of Wildlife Resources immediately.
? Always fight back. And never give up! People have successfully defended themselves with almost anything: rocks, sticks, backpacks, water bottles and even their hands and feet.
