    Props to the dad for thinking quickly and doing what he had to do to save his son, knowing that the bear could turn on him next. True fatherly love right there. I'm glad they both made it out alive.

My brother and I was stung numerous times trying to mount our pony standing on a hay bailing machine left in the pasture, the pony took off with brother and I was left standing on that contraption, bees all over me (was about 6 yrs old) and had on a dress. I was covered with yellow jackets. My mother sat me up on our washing machine getting them off of me. I use to catch wasps, hold them down and pull out their stingers and then play with them.

    I'm glad to see the hunter survived the grizzly attack! Nevertheless, allow me to share some hunting wisdom with everyone: Although hunting scents mask your human odor, they provoke big game animal attacks, ... be it deer, elk, moose, bear, etc. Animals smell one thing but see something else which creates an unknown danger and provokes a instinctive defense reaction, fight or flight. This is why some states, like Idaho - which is a grizzly state, have banned the use of scents in elk hunting. Additionally, bow hunters move and hunt like predators which provoke the same type of protective reactions in game animals. Bear Spray combined with a bear caliber handgun are a must even with bowhunters. You are responsible for your own safety!!!!!

    On my 11th birthday me and my dad went elk hunting in the mountains of Montana. We lived there so I spent a lot of time out in the woods by myself. Me and my dad had a bow because it was opening day of elk for archery. We went to a familiar valley and I started walking down the hill. For some reason I stopped and I turned around and I asked my dad if there are any bears. He shook his head and said there ain’t no damn bears as we had never crossed paths with any bears in the past. I continued walking down the hill and less than 20 seconds later he whistled at me and told me to get down. He pointed about 300 yards in the distance and we saw a large male black bear standing on his hind legs sniffing the air in the direction I was walking. Your dog gone right God was with this man just like he was with me when I was 11 years old and told me to ask my dad If there were any bears. God is the most high! 🙏

      Maybe hunting for sport is wrong. Maybe that was one of the lessons they were suppose to

      Hebrews 12:6
      For whom the Lord loveth he chasteneth, and scourgeth every son whom he receiveth.
      Discipline and punishment are two separate things. These two must know what’s Gods plan was for this. In the end it’s still a “miracle”.

    Way to go Dad! What a stud, I bet his family is proud! I couldn't imagine what I'd do if I saw one of my kids being attacked by a bear, that's a horrifying thought
    We have survival classes that are taught in the elementary schools and middle schools in my town; we were always taught that in a bear attack you do want to be face down w/ the bear behind you. Just like every animal, our stomachs are our 'soft spot' you don't want a bear literally gutting you right before your very eyes with one powerful swipe, gotta protect those vital organs. We were told to curl up in a ball and try not to move, arms covering the back of your head & neck.
    I live on an island in Alaska, that's why they teach this kind of stuff to our kids up here; in elementary school, it's mandatory 2 wk swimming and water survival stuff. It's a pain cuz they get in the water fully clothed so for 2 wks I'm doing laundry daily, but on the bright side my kids can turn their pants into a floatation device should the occasion ever call for it lol we also do 7th-grade camping trips and 8th-grade survival trips.
