Grimpuppy Yes, it was that mix of horror comedy that I like. Somewhat similar, though nowhere near as good as Star Ship Troopers!

I can’t even begin to count how many times I have watched Starship Troopers! Great flick.

Very unfortunate, but as was pointed out food should have never been in their tents. In Montana humans are not at the top of the food chain in rural areas. I was elk hunting on the Continental Divide between Idaho and Montana. I came across wolf tracks, mountain lion tracks, black bear tracks (claw marks on tree too), and grizzly bear tracks with cub all on the same walk through some timber. Definitely gave me the willies! Grizzly bears are something to be respected and they scare the crap put of me!

Jonathon The first time I ran into one in the woods my thoughts were da_n that’s a big dog, then realized I had a good mile walk back to my truck at sunset, a bit unnerving as they are singing and visibility is diminishing. I have had one walk in my foot prints when I was out solo doing some solo field ops, less than ten minutes after I came through. You need to keep your head on a swivel and be aware of your surroundings. Most dogs don’t stand a chance, but may buy you some time or at least a distraction.
YooperDog I have never crossed paths with a wolf but have seen coyotes and a bobcat while walking my dog along the river near my house. Once mentioned at work I was considering getting a CC permit to carry a gun while walking, they were wondering if I was afraid of people there and I said no, animals. They are used to people and are not afraid of them.

I’ve also seen timber wolves in northern Minnesota. They are a big animal. Also had a black bear 6 feet from out tent. My wife did not care for that!

ND Mike We have game camera pictures of black bears on our hunting property in MN, just north of Highway 10. Also starting to see coyotes show up, which I don’t like and am thinking of trying to call them to get rid of them, only problem is I live in NM and only make it up there once in the summer and then again in Nov. for deer hunting.

bocephus coyotes are all over here. They are fawn killing machines. I have shot many yotes.

ND Mike I grew up in western MN along ND border, we never had coyotes around when I was young, just red fox. Just started showing up in the central lakes country, west of Detroit Lakes. Told my brothers to shoot on sight, again problem is none of us live in the area any more, although we are all either retired or soon to be so hopefully can spend more time there and try and get rid of the problem.

bocephus a CC is a good way to go, just need to follow your State laws, especially the DNR’s. Some are pretty particular about having a firearm in the woods w/o a valid license.

While I would not want to have an encounter with even a single wolf, I think they are more pack hunters than solo hunters when it comes to large mammals.
processhead I agree with you there. The first one I seen in my area was a single, maybe out roaming or part of a spread out pack. My solo encounter with the foot prints were from a mated pair in the area. It was a bit of a distraction because I didn’t think there were any in the area and I was out in the field solo doing day and night training. I only found out after I went to talk with the local DNR agent for the post.

Don’t get me wrong, I carry bear spray and a Glock 30 (45cal) when I’m in bear country hiking or camping. After 32 plus years of LE, I’m still more worried about 2 legged animals than any other. That includes sharks also and I SCUBA.

GWG8541 That’s the biggest problem we have is the two legged kind. Lots of tweakers in the woods since we boarder a National Forest where our property is. We run into their camps all the time, they like to give you cr*p until they see a holster, then they have no idea who you are. If you go back the next day they are gone.

johnsbrewhouse yup, but a lot of thrash they leave behind you need a hazmat outfit to clean up. Here we have folks that can’t pass high school chemistry but know how to shake and bake household and hazardous chemicals to get high.

Guys. This was a very tragic event. Nature is a force to deal with. Education and experience are critical when dealing with dangerous animals. I know I don’t mind snakes, as long as I can identify them without a question. I don’t play with the poisonous ones. I know nothing about bears, so I wouldn’t go camping without someone with experience or until I gathered enough information to feel comfortable.
Now on a bit of the lighter side, Here, in southeast Texas, the biggest predictor we have that can eat us alive are the mosquitoes. They have been know to carry away small calf.

Chef state bird here in Upper Michigan. You can hear them on their attack run, sounds like a squadron of Japanese Zeroes armed with kamikaze pilots.
When we are in our environment we are at the the top of the food chain, cross that thin line and the food chain lines begin to blur. But unfortunately the two legged variety is going to cause to most issues.

400 lb grizzly killed a woman in Montana this morning, dragged her out of her tent and mauled her to death. 1st, terrible tragedy, I feel for her family and friends. 2nd, they are planning on trapping and killing the bear, the right move in my mind. 3rd, eaten by a grizzly is my 2nd biggest fear on way to die, eaten by a great white is #1. I have a fear of being eaten I guess?
Jonathon my first trips to Montana was a high school event to glacier park, various camp sites and Wyoming for Yellowstone and the Grand Tetons. My teacher had lived and/or visited those areas for years. On our first night he described us as human burritos in sleeping bag tortillas. There is a reason why you don’t leave food or any other bear attractant i. Your tent and our in the open. They have lock boxes at the campgrounds for a reason. It sounds like the bear made an initial contact with the bear before they put everything away. You gotta be careful in bear country

Joe Hell Yup, be careful with your food and burry anything that needs to be buried. I always go back to the scene in the movie “The Edge” with Anthony Hopkins and the Bear in Alaska where he finds out that Baldwins character didn’t burry the bloody rag and then they hear the bear. Now, that doesn’t make a ton of sense as the guy is still bleeding all over the place but still!
Does anyone remember tiger mosquitos? I am sure they were a thing like 10 years ago and I am fairly certain I saw one on my dog this weekend and MAN are they big!
