Hmmmm some great points...
I buy a new white cotton t shirt for camping..it stays in its package, when setting up the tent I throw the new white sleep shirt in.
No food no candies, dont even brush your teeth in your tent.cook and wash away from your sleeping.
When you go to your tent,,, knife flashlight rifle accompany you..if a bear visits you at night treat it as PREDATORY..if the door of the tent is occupied by said bear, or he flopps down on the tent..use the knife to make a exit..until out rifle is useless..flashlight is to see what to shoot. .
This brings us to the gleaming white new t shirt. .at 3am tired anxious terrified things happen really fast the white helps in the confusion to identify the good guys..you..your partner..
Not eveyone who gets attacked dies..actually deaths are not the norm..however most shot by said partner by accident confusion do die.
If bear grabs your partner aim for bears ass end direction AWAY from bears mouth thats holding your partner..shoot in the hip..KEEP YOUR RIFLE ON THAT SAME EXACT SPOT...the bear will drop partner do a 180 and where his hip was his head will be..shoot in head.
Once down ensure bear is dead..now deal with your injued partner.
Aiming anywhere along a bear towards the head the bullet may travel along the spine towards the mouth holding the bears tent taco dinner..usually fatal at close range for both bear and victim.
tents are for sleeping..not eating.nothing in there to attract bears dinner attraction.
Cheers
