Interesting - bear spray AND a gun and he couldn't get to either.

It makes me wonder if bears have 2 kinds of attacks - where they are just trying to neutralize a threat, and where they are treating the person as prey. Seems that more people survive the attacks where they stumble between a sow and cub, or bear and food cache, but die when attacked after being stalked for some time. I haven't seen any stats, just thinking off the top of my head here.
