I have very little big bear experience and no dealing with them were i live. I have hunted in bear country a couple times and had zero encounter. However my sister does live in bear country in Alaska and spends alot of time remote outdoors. In fact last week she sent a video she made of some big as brown bears and we had a pretty heated debate about it as i did not see a firearm. She said we had our bear spray and i pretty much went ballistic. Just sent her this article. Ive already said i have limited knowledge but a strong survival instinct and im pretty sure if ya bring an aerosol can to a bear fight you may get your arse handed to you or worse ?
