Grizzly man
She was with him for three years --that trip was not her first trip into grizzly country with him. do you have any evidence that he forced her to go on that fatal trip. You have inferred and accused First Nation Families in the past, so your comment above does not surprise me. However even in...- Panda Bear

IMHO---everybody should carry it with them when in bear country, even if there has been cases when it was ineffective, as well as a firearm.- Panda Bear

Grizzly man
we have used the video and audio to teach, what not to do, as we have both brown and white bears visit us in town at times. I am always sorry that someone is killed but before we blame him for her death lets at least acknowledge that she was 40 years old and a P.A. She was not dumb, young, or...- Panda Bear

Ukraine / Russia
Funny how this thread turned to a topic that is currently being discussed in this neck of the woods. Is it better to have a young Prime Minister or an older one ? And one of the topics that came up is "vitality" of the younger man, or woman. We have had a least 10 "published " sex scandals...- Panda Bear

Fatal grizzly encounter
You bring up a good point. Without a doubt my first thought was sorrow for the family, which is always my first thought when tragedy strikes. But if the tragedy possibly could have been avoided if certain precautions had been adhered to, then we do use the tragedy to teach both children and...- Panda Bear

Ukraine / Russia
makes sense. Also, I noticed that Finland as of, I think, today has cancelled all train service (passenger and cargo ) into Russia and Ukraine. And, question for anyone--would NATO do more for Finland, than they are for Ukraine, if Russia did attack them ? I dont see that happening...- Panda Bear

Fatal grizzly encounter
I agree. We supposedly have approx 6500 Grizzlies. The number of DLP kills are not included in the harvested number (tags) so the exact number of grizzly kills per year is not known. However , the total number of bears have been fairly consistent for a couple of decades. After Valerie and...- Panda Bear

Ukraine / Russia
Thank you. Appreciated. Remember I am still working toward going on a Capercaillie hunt and although I am sure the hunt will happen in Sweden, we did investigate hunts in Finland. A little off topic but after inquiring about the hunt in Finland we got an unsolicited response from a Russian...- Panda Bear

Ukraine / Russia
Thank you, both for your original correction and this one. I went back just now and edited my original post--probably should just delete it, but I was hoping someone would see it and give me their thoughts about Finland and whether anyone thinks they will join Nato. I am reluctant to make any...- Panda Bear

Ukraine / Russia
We ( Canada ) have sent nearly one billion dollars to Ukraine since 2014 and now we have decided to "loan" them another 500 million. Does anybody keep track of where this money goes ? Does any of it end up in personal bank accounts. We had a discussion this morning ( not here ) about the...- Panda Bear

1 horn sheep?
We do not have Big Horn Sheep, only Dall and Stone. First Nation people have no problem harvesting one with a broken horn, as we use the hide and meat, not the horns. However I can not imagine this being true for someone who paid full price to hunt them, but, these are tough hunts in beautiful...- Panda Bear
