In 1992, two Alaskan communities were shaken by two different encounters with bears that ended in tragedy. Wes sheds a a light on how things went wrong, and then goes over the best things to do should anyone find themselves in a similar situation.
Three things to remember in the event of a bear encounter:
1. Group up (safety in numbers!)
2. Get your bear spray out and have it ready to use
3. Slowly back away
