Lloren on tee vee!!

LOL! Totally couldn't tell if that was satire or not, but it was the WORST advice for what to do when encountering a bear. Best thing is to lay down and hold still. Most times they false charge (crapped my pants once) and will walk away. If you engage they will go to town on your face (fighting now recommended).

Contrary to popular thought, Grizzly Bears are actually vegetarians (http://www.allredlodge.com/wildlife/grizzly_bears.php) and wouldn't eat you (unless they are really sick and deranged). They maul and attack if they are defending their territory or you scare them. Black bears will eat meat though and would love to gnaw on your leg for dinner if they catch up with you.

Cheers!
