How do u observe near to a wood where there are brown bears and wolves???

My Ceska Zbrojovka 375 H&H makes me feel safe,my telescope feels safe too....Bears are very dangerous at times,500-600 pounders are not uncommon here.I don't go far from my truck most times,not that this would help much-they can run 30mph.http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_fatal_bear_attacks_in_North_America.

My friends come with me, Smith and Wesson. I do not worry when they are around.

That bear opening the car door was something else. Glad the owner did not leave the keys in it as I bet that bear would have driven it away! After all, they do ride bikes!

What I do is climb on top of the car. And wait. And use your two-watt Lazer if u see them.

Works for me with aligators.

I thought the evidence against wolves was about zero? From what I've read they have no history whatever of attacking humans. Boars, at least the ones round here, are extremely wary and tend to keep well away from humans with good reason. A boar injured by the hunters might be aggressive. The big danger with boars will be driving to your site. They can knock you off the road and hitting them at speed would mean a high speed crash, possibly into trees. Now bears, yes, there I would be seriously careful! And snakes if you have poisonous ones.

Olly this is not as crazy as it sounds. When I lived in Alice Springs in the Northern Territory there were a few accidents where inexperienced drivers wrote off themselves hitting cows at night and during the day a pair of german tourists in a small VW hit a horse broad sides .

Yeh crashing into wildlife ain't good.

Wolves tend to go for dogs rather than people but you don't want to get in the way.

The idea of fighting off a bear with a laser pointer made me chuckle

Hmmmm........    A strategically placed picnic basket should  keep them  occupied

The wolves here are not as scared of humans as they once were.They come into town,kill dogs and will "watch you" from a short distance.I think the term is habituated-this is bad. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wolf_attacks_on_humans

No bears or wolves around where I live, just snakes, spiders and crocs!

[Digger1895]

Oh, and don't go into the sea to try and escape from them!
