Sad, a 6yo child was killed, what a horrible way to die.
Have read lots on bear avoidance and bear defense. Wonder what would/could have happened if someone there was kilted and could have "unkilted" and swung their unwrapped kilt in full circles over their head.
Would it have driven off the bear?....or attracted the bear....
Need more research on bears and swinging kilts....could it be that hiking kilted would turn out to be the best bear defense?
Really....
I'm serious here....
I really am.
