I worked with a man that was well over 6 foot tall and weighed nearly 300 lbs. He was burning trash one night at work and was charged by a brown bear. When we saw him he was waddling back to camp (I mean waddleing like a duck) He had crapped his pants. The sight of an animal the size of a volkswagen bug, taking 20 foot leaps at you, has this way of making you realize just how puny you are.

So that answers the question: Not only do bears SHlT in the woods, men being charged by bears SHlT in the woods and their pants also.

I bet if you put a 50 cal slug into a grizzley it would SHlT on the spot too. LOL!!!

If you could get a slug into a charging bear. Sure one standing still you could take down. But a running moving bear coming straight at you presents a smaller target, plus trees etc. I'm tellin ya. Your gonna want some spread!

So what's the spread? I'll take the Bears at -7.

You got to remember I live in Las Vegas and the spread has a whole different meaning down here.
