Snooky, Ive heard big bears are a sucker for the "oh look an eagle" distraction, that way you can kick them in the jewels when they are looking away, oh and watch for the martial arts, seems the bears were starting to have some problems overwhelming people due to the on going craze of the UFC, so they enlisted in some karate training. And if that doesnt work, make sure you stay at a Holiday Inn Express the night before. See link for the details of defending yourself.
