Magnum Bear Spray and Hip Holster – 7.9 ounces by UDAP
ATTENTION Wilderness Trekkers – Hikers – Backpackers! Be Prepared in Bear Country!
Bears attack for four main reasons: to protect their young, protect a food source, protect their territory, or they have become predatory. Many bears may and will false charge or bluff. This is their way of scaring off the animal or person who they consider a threat. The problem is how to tell a false charge from a real attack. The bear may stand up right on its hind legs and swing its head back and forth. This a clear sign of two things one its becoming stressed and two its attempting to see and smell exactly who or what has upset it. They do not have great eyesight but can smell very well. In any event regardless of the reason for the attack it is not advisable to play dead. If the bear is predatory it intends to eat you. Your nothing more then a fresh meal to it. And laying down simply makes it easier to enjoy a nice tasty warm meal. You should throw your arms in the air and yell as loud as you can scream stomp your feet kick up the surrounding area. In other words like a wild man. Make yourself look bigger and louder then the bear is. Convince it that your not worth attacking or the meal it wants. There are many great books on the subject of bear encounters and attacks. I suggest you find and read any of the one written by Mr. Gary Sheldon

I have always been taught to play dead for ANY bear attack; a cougar, on the other hand, is fairly easily scared away by something that fights back. Needless to say, it’s best to avoid encounters with EITHER!

The type of bear matters not in the slightest, the question is WHY is the bear attacking?
If it is a sow (female) bear attacking you, to protect her cubs, then yes, play dead. She’s still going to mess you up badly, but all she really wants to do is knock you down (hopefully so you are dead) so she can get her cubs to safety.
Same thing if a bear attacks you, because you suprised it. Probably just wants to knock you down, and run away.
If it’s attacking, because you have food, or it thinks YOU are food, then fight for all you are worth….it’s your only chance.
