Thank you for relaying this info and kudos to the state agency for putting it out there. People may not hunt down the info on their site but if they consume your content they will get it. Thank you!

If I’m ever on a jury to decide whether a grizzly killing was justified, that person is walking away on hung jury no matter the evidence against them Unless the shot was over 400 yards away. You gotta draw the line somewhere

Was out towards Jardine opening morning. Nothing like being out in the pitch dark and seeing bear scat.

Shot a black bear (~250lb) coming at a full sprint this season. We were walking/cow calling along a river at last light. He got about 20ft behind my partner before I started shooting and luckily I had decided to not hunt with my bow that night.
Stay prepared out there and have a way to call for help.
This was northern British Columbia

Good info, I wonder if the experts on grizzly bears has ever tried using one of those small air horns on scaring bear maybe incorporate with the spray.

It’s always an adventure hunting in Grizzly country!

A couple of weeks ago a man and a woman and their dog were killed up here in Alberta. When authorities got there 5.5 hours later, bear was still there. It was an old skinny sow with worn down teeth.

I was hunting elk 2 weeks ago idaho unit 14, next to Florence, just 5 or 6 miles south east of Florence, 400 yards from our spot there was a big grizzly bear, , they are getting closer and closer in Idaho.

Thank you sir. Calling the authorities to work out details what exactly will they do? Meat belongs to the bear now.

Two hikers and their dog were killed by a grizzly a couple weeks ago in Banff, Canada. Bear spray was used apparently

Total BS! When a grizzly attack, without a sidearm, you'll be done.

I noticed a grizzly high up that tree on this video page before I hit play, um, that a red flag for me because neither brown bear or grizzly bear clime trees, they will push down small trees but never climb them I'm 52 and hunted black, brown and grizzlies all my life and never ever ever have I ever seen a grizzly up a tree especially that high this video gives inaccurate and unsafe depiction of grizzly behavior and can get you hurt or dead
