Bozeman, Montana resident Todd Orr was scouting for elk on Saturday, October 1 in the Madison Valley when he encountered a sow Grizzly bear with cubs. Todd described the incident on his facebook page.

"Suddenly, she turned and charged straight my way," he said. "I yelled a number of times so she knew I was human and would hopefully turn back. No such luck. Within a couple seconds, she was nearly on me. I gave her a full charge of bear spray at about 25 feet. Her momentum carried her right through the orange mist and on me. She was on top of me biting my arms, shoulders and backpack. The force of each bite was like a sledge hammer with teeth."

Todd said after a couple of minutes the sow was suddenly gone. He was alive and began walking back the three miles towards his truck. However, after 5-10 minutes the same grizzly approached him and attacked once more. Again, he survived and made it back to his truck and eventually the hospital.

extremely lucky he was

I guess she thought his ass wasn't walking fast enough.
Momma bears: serious business.

This guy is so cool. Despite what has happened he injects some humour in his dialogue.

We are lucky to only have the very rare black bear in this area. However, we do have a very large puma that ranges our area. Conservation officers have observed it, as has my roommate. She observed it lounging in the shade about 100 yards from the edge of the "mowed yard" while she cut the lawn. Ever since, we don't mow the yard without bear spray and a sidearm. Sometimes puma around here will mistake a riding mower for a prey animal, such as a calf.

Lucky for me, I only saw that cat several years ago when it was still fairly adolescent.

Unfucking believable! What exactly does bear spray consist of?
