Haha. There was a story around Jackson a couple summers ago...Lady went into Kmart and bought spray...then proceeded to go into the parking lot and spray down her kids...like mosquito spray. Didnt turn out so well. . i will say 100% the bears in our area come to gunshots. . One place in particular we usually go for late season deer and when the elk migrate, there is a big ol boar up there each year who comes running to shots...I usually just throw a deer up on my saddle and bail off as fast as possible. I have watched him before follow my horse tracks step for step in the snow, when we havent even shot yet, he just knows to follow us. . its definitely a little spooky
Poor kids. Time for a few Grizz tags to be issued to reeducate the bears about gunshots. I was at an eye doctors in Worland, getting some glasses fixed while on a unit 125 deer hunt. He has a beautiful WY Grizz mount, said it was one of the last taken before they were protected. Seen plenty of bear and mounts, that one, while not huge, remains one of the prettiest I've seen.

once we can get some of those enviros to come pet some of our grizz pets then we may be allowed to get some tags issued when some of them get mauled by a nice grizzly bear. its past due, they don't fear man, and that my friends is a very scary thing!
