While filming Grizzly Bears during the salmon spawn in the Bute Inlet, on Canada's amazing Pacific West Coast, I witnessed this poor little grizzly cub get into some serious trouble. She's fallen into the rapids and I'm not sure she's going to be OK. This inspired me to write my first fully illustrated Children's Book called, "Ella Learns a Lesson - A story about rapids, Grizzlies, and Motherly...

    Thank you so much for the tips. A friend of mine whose husband is a hunter told me to carry a whistle because bears hate the sound and to also spray strong perfume because they dislike the smell. I think the problem with perfume is that it may attract bugs. What do you think?

    What kind of hippie “play dead” nonsense is this?? You related to Trudeau?? Don’t listen to foolhardy people say their bear-whispering skills (ie dumb luck) made a bear go away. 🙄 Get spray, get a practice can, properly attach it to your pack, then give it all legit study, try different attachment methods and practice drawing so that you discover any slowdowns or hangups. Meanwhile, avoid videos like this and seek out those with real guide experience that show various bear behaviors and tell you when and when not to spray, or worst case when to shoot. “Punch it in the nose”.. I mean really, wtf.

      Buddy, or should I say Troll, with no CZcams content or subs. You sound like you have zero experience in the backcountry. You have no idea what you are talking about, and WTF does Trudeau have to do with safety in the backcountry? (Thought he's probably make you look like a wimpy ass hat face to face. ) Man up. Stop being a hack and go home to your condo or whatever hole you crawled out of. You've never seen a real bear in your life which is crystal clear. Let the rest of us survive the real wild and teach others with love about our experiences. (Oh and I'm no hippie, but I don't think that's negative. I'm First Nation and I celebrate mother earth, creator, and my fellow predators.)

    Can I ask why you didn’t get loud and aggressive in your explanation of your interaction? You kept calm each time he charged you. So I’m confused why the original advice was not followed. Thankyou for your response! And the video. I want to go hiking with my 7 year old son. And I’m very scared for us to have this encounter.

    • @InsidersTravelGuideCanada
      @InsidersTravelGuideCanada Před měsícem

      Please let me clarify. When trying to calmly walk away, you remain calm. You speak calm and you slowly retreat while making NO eye contact. You only get loud and aggressive if you are being attacked. Otherwise you only provoke an attack which you don't want to do.

    What are your thoughts on bear spray if a grizzly charges you? Would it be a good idea to stand your ground and use the bear spray and horn if the bears charges/gets too close?

    • @InsidersTravelGuideCanada
      @InsidersTravelGuideCanada Před měsícem

      I'm not a bear spray advocate, but it's not say it doesn't work. But it's fact that many grizzly bears have only gotten more pissed off after being sprayed. Look at all of the people who get pepper sprayed in riots etc...many of them fall to their knees, but many of them also get even more enraged. My personal view is, that if a black bear attacks, I stand my ground and fight like hell. If a grizzly attacks I play dead. There's a whole other conversation to be had there. Perhaps it's time for another video!

    When I was 14, I was fishing in a California Sierra stream when I heard something nearby. It sounded like a goat, so I approached the brush to take a look. Then suddenly the bushes erupted and a horrible roar occurred. I was being rushed by a very angry bear. For a bare second I saw the bushes bouncing toward me. There was no conscientiousness or decision making in the moment. I ran.. the sounds behind me were horrible. It's like a dream because I just remember flying over a log as if I was picked up by angels. I could hear the horrible sounds behind me. I never looked back and ran out of the area. My mind recorded the minimum in the moment and I don't know how I got so much speed over the river rocks. Instinct prevailed!
