The bear attack, the shot in the leg, the struggle to survice and recover are all things which can happen here in BC. The victim in this case is showing remarkable strength and composure in dealing with the aftermath of his experience and expresses thanks for his partner's actions. Even if he should lose the leg, he will still be standing taller than he would if he had been alone or his son-in-law had not been able to respond as he did. GD
