I hear a lot of people talking about carrying when in Yellowstone as protection from bears. The reality is if you killa charging bear in Yellowstone and you don't already have a big chunk out of your butt, be prepared get prosecuted and lose all your guns forever.
Best you can do is hike with your head on a swivel - make noise and don't hike alone.
It's better to survive a bear attack and fight the politicians afterwards, an unarmed fight with a grizzly is a one-sided proposition.
