This thread prompted me to take my 6 inch deer knife with me the next time I go into the woods. We don't have any big cats here in NY but we do have coyotes and black bear in the area - I think I can take a few down in a fight (the coyotes that is).

I think a big can of mace would work wonders for anything but snakes, as the other animals have much more sensitives noses than we do. And look what it does to us. Wonder if they comein fire exstinguisher size? ^^

bear mace, comes in a huge can and it sprays like 30-40 feet. pretty potent stuff.
I wouldn't mind having it on me if a ferocious animal was after me. Though it might not do much to a tiger or something except piss it off.

last time i was at big bend hiking the window trail at dusk....


coming around a canyon turn there was a baby black bear on the other side of the canyon draw, a thicket in between him and our group that i knew the mother was most likely in.

startled us because we were all on 2cb. heh

but we made a lot of noise and nothing came of it.

I'm not sure I'd want a bear with the muchies near me. :shocked:

how are you folks not scared shitless of waking up to a large cat munching on your upper thigh??




I remember seeing that show awhile back, The Alaskan Experiment that had 4 groups of people living in different shelters for a few months from late summer till mid winter.  One of the groups was living in essentially a giant tent with brown bears roaming around it, and meanwhile they've got like 100 lbs of salmon plus whatever food they managed to hunt stored in it.  Would have had me on edge till it was hibernation time.

Something like this:


With a canvas wrapped around it.  Would have been like plastic wrap to a bear.

i like to think this is the case, but i've heard stories of wolves getting pretty territorial when a dog is around, or the dog getting chased by a bear and bringing it right towards the owner. but i think generally, it creates more noises/smells and thus reduces your chance of getting fucked with.

I probably should have mentioned not to take a lap dog into the woods.  I was referring to real dogs like yours, or mine pictured above.  Even a mellow dog like a chocolate lab will tree a black bear.

nobody ever believes me when i say this,
but i was bitten by a cougar when i was
really young. i was living with my grandpa
back then and he owned it- got him from
a guy in south carolina i believe. he
was beautiful- probably the reason i love
big cats so much to this day.
his name was elliot, after the
cougar in that movie "elliot".
i was down but his cage, which had holes big
enough for him to fit his head through.
i was close enough that he stuck
his head through and bit into my
right oblique. i have some wicked
scars from it.

Yea, she's rottie/black lab.  She has good protection instinct from the Rott, and great athleticism and climbing ability from the Lab.  She's reached the summit with me on every mountain I've climbed.  She goes up rock faces like a mountain goat.

Real good looking dog. My family's past four dogs have been rotty-huskies. Our current ones are Rotty-Huskier/Terrier. The rotty no doubt has that protective instinct. One of them has one blue eye from the husky and one brown eye from the rotty. :cool:

So does mine.  Her black lab mother had some husky too, so she's a rot/husky/lab mix to be more accurate.  Here's a pic of her being silly last year as a six month old pup, but it shows the blue eye.
