just remember most bears are left handed so take the jab and dodge the left

Really?
I never once considered that.
I'll try to remember when the time comes

Well picking up after themselves is not a lot of peoples strong suit
I backpacked through a lot of bear country my youth without issues.

I have camped in the boundry waters in northern Minnesota where you had to hang your food in a tree.

Just remember, you don't have to outrun the bear, you just have to outrun the person with you

I backpacked through a lot of bear country my youth without issues.

Every time I find a bear turd in my back yard, I'm glad to remember we only have black bears, and not brown bears. In 13 years on this property, I've yet to actually see one in person, but I'm constantly thinking about them when making trips between my house and barn in the dark. And I'm finding their giant berry-filled turds in my yard at least several times every year.

Our black bears will almost universally avoid people, if you just jingle your key ring or make any other noise sufficient for them to hear you coming. The only people who ever seem to be hurt by them are those quiet souls who accidentally stumble upon them.

On the flip side, Brown bears terrify me. I hope I never stumble across one of any age, in my travels.

That's a great point, and a good answer for @steve tym's concern about the lack of helmet laws costing taxpayers more money. You might argue it actually saves taxpayers money, by increasing the likelihood of death (rather than paralysis), among those in motorcycle accidents.

In that case it should become mandatory on bicycles but not on motorcycles.

The bicycle is part of Hollands culture for 150 years. Helmets are not. Though both my parents and their neighbours have bought helmets with their electric bikes after my accident, because you have a whole other balance on an electric bike that supports when you push the pedals, making the chance of falling, much bigger.

I am not saying either one (individual health insurance in the USA, or collective healthcare in Europe) is better, but i do see a point in both of them.. if i hadnt payd 30% of my income for social benefits mandatory, i probably would have spent it in my youth instead of saving it. On the other hand, culturally i didnt grew up within a private insurance system, so maybe i would have saved up if i was born within the US healthcare system... just thinking out loud...

I thought only Leopards did...

I just read a story in Reader's Digest about four young men that were attacked by a Grizzly.

Although less calamitous than some of the others posted on this thread, this one somehow offends me as much or more than any other. I mean, without even understanding gross trailer weight ratings, a 4-year old could look at this one and spot two big problems, one at each end of those 16 footers. What's he thinking?

Having grown up with the European style I can say with certainty which is better.
