RobinJI Posted May 29, 2012 Report Share Posted May 29, 2012 ....We camped in the Sequoia National Park and were told we were safer in the tent than the car.... Is US build quality really that bad? But seriously, how does that work? Is it because they can see you in the car or something? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JT! Posted May 29, 2012 Report Share Posted May 29, 2012 Bears know to f**k cars up to get food. Generally people don't keep food in tents or have them in sealed containers so bears can't smell them. Bears have learned this and don't even bother anymore. But really so long as you don't have any food open to the air you'd have no issues.

I felt a hell of a lot safer with metal and glass between me and the bear than a thin piece of fabric though! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke Dunstan Posted May 29, 2012 Report Share Posted May 29, 2012 As with a shark I would personally poke a bear in the eye. If that fails, then maybe explosive defecation and a neat foetal position. I love this forum. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
