Distress calls work, fawn, or calf, in in elk country. Here's a link to bear calling posts.

And a link to a thread I posted my target bear in, I plan to call him outta the berries or salmon as he's only 40 miles up the Suislaw river. I can't get a good stand or blind where I got his pic, trees too low, and its ina bowl so has swirling winds, so it's the Foxpro, might try black bear cub distress when I have more backup than my Revolver.
Oh yeah, Oregon days I can protect myself.
