Everyone I’ve talked to/know that do stats, forest work, work in the forest, etc. has flagged the same thing. There are a lot of deaths we can’t prove were grizzlies. The stats people all flag the missing person distribution. Areas known to have a heavy grizzly presence are noticeably higher than very low count areas. Lean years have noticeable spikes in those same areas.
The people that work back country have all encountered grizzlies that seemed too comfortable with human aimed hunting behaviour. In their words “bear spray don’t mean shit to a hungry adult grizzly”.
The campers killed in Banff reported a bear attack and sent an emergency GPS signal with the same message. Their route was pre-planned and communicated with someone staying behind. They checked in daily to report progress. They did everything right. It’s unusual, especially for leisure, that people do any of that.
Asked a few relevant people their opinions on the deaths. Opinions differed a bit on exactly what caused it to be officially recognized as a grizzly attack. They did all agree on 2 things. The campers were role models for proper back country safety. If they hadn’t been they would have just been another missing or cause of death unknown statistic.
Really wanted to get some of the Travel pro brand. Sadly, despite seeing it all the time with crew, it doesn’t meet our size requirements as passengers.
I’ll have to see if they have an international site. Checked today and their smallest option is still a bit too big. Might get one anyway as it seems all the luggage recommended for the airline are all a bit too big in at least one direction. We have one of the stricter airlines for baggage size.
Things are becoming more depressing every day and I can’t afford for professionals and don’t want to jump to the last resort or drugs. Is there a medicine that can make me happy if I take it in proper doses and does not require a doctor’s prescription?
Also vitamin K. Had low vit D blood work and doc upped vit D intake until we started to see side effects, still low on blood work. Added vit K, halved vit D intake and blood work is good now.

What product brings a lot more value than its cost to purchase?
Is there any medicine that can give me happy hormones and does not need a doctor's prescription?
