Excerpt #1
Town stammered out that this wasn’t a normal bear as it wasn’t scared of them. He blew loud blasts from his whistle and thumped on the tent poles to frighten the bear away. Lilly had been connected with the Blue Ridge Parkway Deputies for the next 90 long minutes.
Now usually when a caller dials 911 they are in or near a house, road, or other landmark they can provide to relay their location. Lilly and Town were out in the woods and realistically beyond the typical service area of first responders. The dispatchers went back and forth with Lilly trying to understand exactly how responders could get to them, but they were not familiar with the trail and its intricacies.
After ironing out the hiker's rough location, dispatch sent responders to the camp, but they were at least thirty minutes away. Lilly and Town were instructed to stay inside their tent but expressed that they were not comfortable staying inside it because they couldn’t see the bear. They thought that trying to make it back out to nearby Highway 3 would be a safer bet, but were overruled by the dispatcher. If responders could not locate them, they would not be able to ensure the safety of the hikers.
As responders scrambled to round up a means to reach the hikers, the bear huffed and chuffed at them through the tent fabric. The hikers positioned themselves as far away from the tent edges as possible and huddled in fear as the time passed slowly.
Excerpt #2
As Carol and her dogs approached the overlook at about 1 PM, they must have walked right past a very dangerous observer concealed by the brush near the trail. It isn’t clear whether the black bear had followed them unnoticed down the trail, or if it had suddenly appeared behind them.
Hiking down the trail, Carol was staring ahead of her when she was driven forward and onto her face. The impact came from nowhere and briefly disoriented Carol, but the searing pain and pressure of a hungry black bear's teeth being driven into the flesh of her lower leg brought her back to reality.
As Carol rolled to her side she could see a black bear latched onto her leg and started to kick at the bear with her other leg. As the bear slashed her legs with its paws while it tried to fend off her kicks, the puncture wounds in her legs tore and bled.
After a couple of well-placed kicks to the bear's head, it switched its attack to her other leg. It caught her lower leg in its jaws and shook its head to set its teeth deep in her flesh.
Thoughts of what to do must have raced through her mind as she determined how to handle this violent attack. Carol kicked and yelled as the bear bit into her legs over and over while it clawed and gashed them. She knew this bear was not defending itself as it came from behind to attack her. Realizing this was a fight for her life, Carol resolved to fight to the end.
As the bear bit and tore at Carol’s legs, her dogs ran around barking and charging toward the bear. Their dashing and darting around confused the bear and distracted it from finishing killing Carol.
Excerpt #3
Now realizing she may be fighting for her life, Laurie kicked viciously at the bear. She put so much ticked-off momma power behind her kicks that the small sow bear slipped on the mud and rolled onto her back. This gave Ellis and Laurie space and time to flee once again.
As the hikers fled back up the trail, they screamed at Blake and Hannah, telling them to run. At one point Laurie turned and punched the bear, exhibiting her own momma bear power to defend her cubs.
Blake had recently graduated from the College of William and Mary and approached the situation with a more academic mindset. Initially, he thought of the cries for help as a prank but soon realized they were not made in vain. Seeing the blood on his mother's wounds confirmed the seriousness of the situation.
As soon as the bear came into view, Blake tapped into his nature buff library of bear-battling tactics. He told the other family members to get loud and get big. Whether he knew this was a predatory attack or not was not indicated in any source I could find, but his advice was solid gold. In an act of unison, they each began to yell and jump around like a pack of enraged cavemen. They threw sticks into the air and raised their hands above their head in a show of force. - Домашні улюбленці та дикі тварини
Hard for me to understand hikers who head out without protection. Should always carry bear spray, and preferably a gun.
I would never hike without a gun
Camping in bear country with no bear spray is just about the dumbest thing a hiker could do. When are people going to stop saying "Oh bears are harmless - they run away if you make noise"? Yeah, most of the time the black bears will do that - but most of the fatal bear attacks are aggressive black bears who suddenly see a human and think "Meat's back on the menu, boys!". And if all you've got is a whistle and a toothpick of a knife - you're the prey.
It drives me crazy when I hear people saying bears are harmless! Even bear spray doesn't always work. Even if the risk of an encounter is minute, I'm going to be prepared.
There was just a grizzly bear attack yesterday, about 40 minutes away from my town.
Oh, yeah? Pic's, or it didn't happen.⏳️
@nicksweeney5176 If you look up Elkford BC Canada, grizzly bear attack, you can read about it.
@nicksweeney5176 It was a father and son out tracking bears with their dogs. The son was attacked and managed to shoot the bear. He has lots of lacerations and broken bones but is in stable condition.
wow! hopefully not fatal
@@Tan_Z
Thanks, man.👍🏻
I would never have been in that area without a firearm or bear spray preferably both!
Having a dog with you is apparently quite the bear attack attractor.
If she had no dogs with her would her outcome have been better?

I like your emojis
My daughter takes my mastiff on hikes and they've ran into many bears. I think it just depends on how the dog reacts. My mastiff is very quiet and calm and has never caused an issue. Last summer they ran into a mama black bear with cubs and they just slowly backed away and everything was fine. Mama was watching them too!
To me, it's sad that you can't enjoy the woods anymore without worrying about being attacked by bears that are considered more precious than humans.
that's their home not ours. If you want to hike in their home then be aware and respectful or its game over. If you want to swim in an ocean you better be thinking about its inhabitants swimming below you too! Many can and will kill and eat you given the opportunity. Humans dont own the planet and we aren't the apex predators so we should act accordingly.
No gun or bear spray these people just want learn
Are there no organized tours in bear country?
Please people do your research & at the very least go prepared.
What is so Important about hiking in bear country - ??? if you must be STUNNED BY STUPIDITY - be fully prepared to lose the battle - I don't understand the need to put yourself in constant danger while camping or hiking
Past 3 days ive woke up at 2 am for no reason and love listening to your videos for 1 hr and i fall back asleep to terrifying bear attacks 😂
I relate to this!
I like it! Adventure Bravely!
What could she have done differently? Come prepared! "Hey, bear!"
A gun
the last story broke my heart cuz the momma bear was euthanized leaving cubs to die
The third story the 9months old cubs probably died because the mom was not there. Way to go authorities as far as going into the woods without a gun or bear spray is asking for trouble.
Dawn dish soap and ammonia is really good, I grew up knowing this as a kid doing my trash chores.dawn soap is a hydrophobic antidote and ammonia tastes nasty ipon exposure to taste buds.1 part ammonia to 5 -10 parts water with a drop of three or more of dawn soap ! Jurisdiction prevails!!!!
I heard something like that here on sba The episode all about protection. Great one I shared with sister in Colorado
@@pattieh5118 miss or mrs. patty I don’t want to gender you correctly, that’s up to you and your physician! I’m just kidding. I grew up in Guam and I gotta admit that the one thing that the regular peasants like me where afforded when corrupt politicians don’t try to buy you votes is trash pick up and no sales tax because we are a territory and not a state. So if you leave your windows down on a Monday night the local tomcat pisses in your car, any night to be precise. And trash pick ups was Tuesday in my neck of the boonies . So it’s hotter than the devils behind in Guam to be clear. And if you rolled down the window as a kid you needed to roll it back up . Once one Tom cat pisses in your car and leaves his scent laden film everywhere you have to be diligent on rolling up your windows after doing a cleaning because there becomes a territorial piss battle happening every time you show up to a new Tom cat’s territory. Guam has a wild dog, cat and chicken issue, not like where I live in Hawaii where they brought in mongoose to kill rats when they aren’t awake. So if you don’t do ammonia mixtures the dogs rip apart a your trash then the cats scavenge before chickens scratch your trash everywhere to pick of maggots. That’s why you keep your trash ya close as mail. It’s personal information that your giving out in some way or another. Even if you burn mail! “ a fed bear is a dead bear “ is the saying. I’ve been between the love of my life and a black bear sow with two cubs . And if a car didn’t drive by I would’ve have seen her! Thirty yards behind ma a national parks ranger was giving a” bear aware lesson and doing interactive work with a campfire consisting mostly of kids( awesome work 👍🏼) and I interrupted with the question of my predicament during his lesson asking “ what do you do if your girlfriend gets out of the tent as I’m walking towards it and there is a bear with her babies?” He responded as he just saw me walk out of the fire’s light and creep back. I pointed it out and he gave the kids the best demonstration. I’m kinda pissed because people left their coolers out and the bear actually ate all the food and crushed every alcoholic beverage in a glass bottle. The mama bear was literally sitting upright on a grassy knoll human like and her two cubs overlooking at us ! It was beautiful. But she met the criteria. Sequoia national park and potwisha campsite 7 to be exact
They hate Ammonia
I'm in southern California, near Pasadena. There's been sightings of brown and black bears in our local mountain hiking trails. It shocks me that the locals think this is "cute" 😑
Now knowing that there's bears in our local mountains, ain't NO WAY I'm doing any hikes for now. I respect these fierce apex predators and value my life too much 💀
You realize that there are tens of millions of of people going in the woods in the US each year but only a few people every year are ever attacked by bears right? Use Math when judging risk. .
@@steveshea6148 B my guest Steve , U 1st.
Smart choice.
Brown bears? As in Grizzly? That would be surprising.
@@vivianpatton5692 I do. I use math every day to understand risk. 2 stories on youtube and your imagination doesn't make an epidemic.
It was,a predatory attack. Yes, the rangers were right.
No way in hell would I have went back there after being ambushed!!🐻 I definitely don't feel Carol could have done anything differently what would I do a bear came up and surprised me I would have peed my pants!!!
Horrifying. I am so glad they made it out alive.
Just moments ago I woke up to scratching which I thought was my dog kicking in her sleep. I looked down at the dog which was motionless and still heard scratching. I got up on my knees to look out the window and here's a 300lb bear looking right at me 2' away. Me and this bear have been matching wits for the last week, he's been on my porch, in my kennels and broke into the garbage pen. I might have to get the warden involved on this one. That bear is starting to get used to gunfire.
Those two are braver than me
As far as any of these attacks goe I would not go hiking in the woods with anything less than a forty five caliber and use it to defend myself
Lets go
yay Atticus!!!
I would love to visit Alaska/bear country but if there is no such thing as organized tours/flights then i just won't risk it.
They are unpredictable & safety is absolutely paramount.
I think a tour by boat or car would be safest! Adventure Bravely!
This was definitely a predatory bear encounter.
I have lived in the up all of my life and have never heard of a bear attack. Iam not saying there has never been so all of this information is so helpful as I camp every year I never stay at camp site's.
What happened to the 1st bear?
A Black Bear will do whatever it can get away with.
Bear was probably stalking upwind from Carol. and her dog so the dog didn't smell it.
hey Addicus, how are you?
I am doing good Trav! How are you doing? I hope you are hanging in there and prospering! Adventure Bravely!
If i did keep on hiking you can bet i would have bear spray. I live just outside of one of towns that the AT goes right thru town. Damascus, Va . And this weekend is Trail Days. Place is full of hikers , expecting 25,000 people

THank you! Adventure Bravely!
And here I thought just about everyone in the USA carried a gun for personal protection! On their person. Stay safe everyone.
The first story would be a great video on how ill prepared some people are when camping in bear country, and how they should just have stayed... HOME!!!the last story all that family ended up doing was getting a momma bear killed for doing what is instinct too any wild animals all because they aren't all that bright to bring bear spray, i realize it doesn't work all the time but with this bear i believe it would have work 100% and why they thought the bear had to be killed is such B.S, people stay your @ss home if you're not prepared or if you're that stupid and you need to wear a helmet around.
Who walks around alone in areas that bears live? Alone, too. Scary! Black bears live. there. Yikes!
Have bear spray, and a firearm you know how to use..
Got a herd of wild ponies as well but they are shy around people.
I read that! We have some in southern Idaho too. If you go out into the desert you can see them peeking over the rise watching out. Pretty cool! Adventure Bravely!
WOULD BEAR SPRAY NOT WORK OR IS IT TOO MUCH MONEY FOR PEOPLE THAT CAN AFFORD TO HIKE ON A TRAIL FOR A YEAR
Timmie Tredwell time.
Head lowered,eyes intent on you & how much energy it will have to spend catching,killing & eating you.I mentioned this before.
Yes stayed,yes
Yes,yes,yes if no weapons.
Note: bear spray and handguns are forbidden in many of the northeast states. Take your chances. 2 legged predators are a bigger problem. Way it is. Please be safe.
Dang it!! I'm so sorry I missed the live chat Addicus and guys!! You snuck up on me Addicus!! Lol!!! 🤣🤣🤣
Of course I’m sad regarding the cubs. The sow left no option other than dispatching the bear.
I hate that word. Dispatching.
So cold and non caring.
i think it is a better word than killed or shot...what is a better way to say it?
@@kathleenthomas1971
put down?
The beginning was way too long. Leaving now
👋🏼
Its not part of a dream
Na
No she was doing what bears do especially mama bear is protecting her baby I think that if you’re going to go into the woods, you should be doubly prepared knowing that those animals are out there euthanizing to me is inhumane
Nothing,yes,not sure the kind of dogs,same thing she did.
Always carry firearms
Who would you choose to be with in the wild. A bear or a man. 🥪
Depends on how well mannered each of them were.
🐻 claw doughnuts 😋😄 now I'm craving one!! If the couple hadn't fled would have been din din for the 🐻🐻🐻 I sure as hell wouldn't have stuck around !! So terrifying!! Thanks for the very 🐻 intense episodes Addicus❤ I usually don't miss when you come on but I was getting things together for my trip to Dawn's a week from Sunday!! The 26 th!! I have been really high strung No ☕ for me!! 🤣🤣🤣
And Rocky raccoon 🦝 🤣🤣🤣
yes!!!
Hey Atticus. Have you ever heard of a peacock spider. they have this colorful flap that looks like a 🦚 peacock 🦚 tail l. As we are told to make ourselves bigger and stick together, I was thinking a simple similar apparatus could be made that attaches to backpacks to make the ppl look bigger, (along with bear spray of course). Maybe i will invent one i will give you 10% of sales!
I LOVE that idea! That would a great experiment! We will go 99:1 in your favor Catsy! :) Adventure Bravely!
