[QUOTE="fta0303, post: 3094924, member: 43503"] Grizzlies behave differently than black bear. Black bears will usually go away if you hurt them. Grizzlies not so much - they have instincts that lead them to attack and kill if you stumble on their food cache. Both continue to death if in predatory attack mode. Surprisw encounters can go either way, with grizzly more likely to make contact. Sows with cubs don't alway attack, depending on what the cubs do. A handgun is much better than nothing, by all means use it if necessary and hope for the best. Try for CNS. Use a chest holster and a lanyard. Everyone attacked by a grizzly is uninterested in the odds of encountering one. [/QUOTE]
