Shooting Have you ever had a bear incident?
Honest question: have you ever had to fend off an aggressive bear in Canada? (hunting or otherwise) What happened, and what worked for your response?

Camping as a kid, my brother, sister, and I rounded a corner right into a big black bear with a small black bear. We just walked backwards around the corner and fucked right off out of there.
This just happened. But note it is only the 4th in the province's history.
