black bear charge today

[srupp]

Hey Phil..just imensley happy she was uninjured physically..however she has become clingy..
This happened 500 yards ( estimate) from our camping spot for spring bear..fall deer..
Clint is bringing the moose rack out..how many pieces do I cut into so Roxanne can make button eyes for sock puppets for the grandkids?

Yikes! Definitely enough excitement for one day. Any chance this was predatory or just a cranky bear?

Glad to hear you and Ebony are okay Steven. I still really appreciate that phone call and the advice you gave me on calling in moose a couple years ago. I hope to go for another this year. Best wishes.

Just a thought, would you now consider not bringing your dog on the next trip? I assume this is a rare occurrence, but the dog put you in a bad situation...I'm sure the benefits of having a dog outweigh the negatives, but for bear hunting it makes me go hmmmm.....

Poor pup lol...Well she loves ya more than ever now! haha

[bigredchev]

Sounds like you go back with a friend and have a nice friendly chat with him.... maybe invite him to the dinner table.

[kaptin]

glad both of you are ok.

Good to hear you both came out look good as usual.

Yes we are headed back there in 48 hours..attitude adjustment for Mr.bear..stay a few days.
I never hunt with my dog for bears or big game..it was a scouting snow level check for hunters from Vancouver. .
I screwed up and let a Ebony out of my line of sight even for just a few seconds.
No she is not coming out for upcoming bear hunt.
Lol Chilcotin Hillbilly..lol.
Cheers
Steven

Dang. That would get the blood pumping. I like the idea of going back and inviting him to dinner.

Glad it worked out the way it did.
