So, do we the human species taste like chicken to a bear?

I doubt a gun or machete would have helped in this case since the man was all wrapped up inside his tent. And all a little gun would do is really pi ss off the bear. Bear spray would be a better option.

And people wonder why I carry a gun in the woods. Four legged attackers can kill just as easily as those on two legs. My little .45 auto might not stop a bear dead in his tracks but it%u2019ll sure get his attention.

GOP, you have got to be kidding right? Camp in a bear''s backyard, expect to see a bear.

Never sleep when in predator, animals or humans, country without caution and awareness of danger. Always post a sentry throughout the night by sharing watch shifts. Never camp alone. Be prepared for anything even violent death. This man and the others were not prepared at all.

""a large grizzly bear, maybe a rogue of some sort, attacked me"

Poor BABE! ya go invade a BEAR''S home and this is the result, what did you expect??

"An Oregon man says he''ll definitely go camping again even though a bear attacked him as he slept in a tent "

Yep, now there''s brains for ya! the definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over and expecting different results, next time he won''t be so lucky. Time to hang up the camping granpa!
