Dire wolves. Sure, dogs you can ride, like in LOTR.

Then the resurrection of Short Faced Bears ought to really get your blood pumping! Although, if one caught sight of you, the blood pumping would swiftly cease ...

Still not big enough to prevent death by ordinary black or grizzly bear. Every year some are killed and a few eaten. Good luck with the Short Faced Bear which makes a grizzly bear seem tiny ...

Thousands of bears are killed every year by hunters with no harm to the hunters.

The idea that fire arms are not effective against bears is just BS .

I seen a lot of shot with all different kinds of firearms the bears have all died.

I did not say guns are ineffective. Just that Short Faced bears were very dangerous and deadly.

That only happens when hunters are hunting the bear, not when the bear is hunting the hunter. Bears sneak up on you or charge out of dense brush. Short Faced bears would eat a large Grisly for breakfast - you would be a snack on the way to dinner.

No one said "fire arms are not effective against bears" - just that only works when you have a fire arm, and are aware of the nearby bear. Else its becomes a different story ...


Be sure you have a large enough caliber ...
