I understand the threat posed by Grizzle bears and rattlesnakes, but are you guys actually concerned about black bears and wolves?
Serious question. I'm not suggesting either animal isn't capable of ending a human, because they clearly do periodically, but I think statistically, you're about 500k× more likely to get struck by lighting while driving to your stand than having a violent encounter with either. I have hunted plenty with wolves all around me in south eastern wyoming, and I will bivy camp in grizzly country every year for a week or two, but I never thought of black bears or wolves as a legitimate threat to an armed man. Am I wrong?
