Excerpt #1
At one point in her hike, Amber heard a loud and very close “Woof!” to her left. She quickly glanced in the direction of the noise and could see a huge grizzly bear only 12 feet from her. She knew that this was a critical point in the confrontation, as she had clearly surprised the bear as much as it had surprised her. She knew the grizzly would either attack her or bolt in the opposite direction, and hoped for the latter.
Amber knew that given the proximity of the run in, her best option was to play dead. She turned to her right and dropped to the ground in the nearest bush, hoping that her backpack might absorb any attack from the grizzly. By the time she did this, she could already feel the grizzly pressing into her back. She could feel a powerful slap from the grizzly on her back and its claws tearing into her arm. She reached down to her bear spray, which she had holstered on her hip, and flipped the safety guard off.
That is when she felt the bears teeth clamp onto her skull. The back of her head was the easiest portion of her head for the bear to access, so that is where it drove its teeth. The bears canines pierced and fractured her skull, popping her bones and sending fragments into her brain.
Excerpt #2
After approaching Field the bear swatted at him and clawed him. It watched him for any signs of life and he knew if he didn’t move he may be able to convince it he was dead. After clawing the man up severely it scraped up sticks, leaves and mud from all around him as the hunter lay flat on his stomach. He fought the urge to look directly at the bear and focused on playing dead. With any luck he could convince the bear that its powerful initial blow had killed him and he worked hard to lay still and silent.
After the bear had spent the better part of an hour scraping duff over Fields body, it padded around him sniffing and watching him. Soon it disappeared and he could only hope it had left for good.
As soon as he stood to his feet the grizzly roared from the nearby bushes and attacked him once again.
The grizzly cuffed him with each of its paws, back and forth several times. Each swat from the bears paws tore clothing, skin and muscle tissue with ease. The bear bit huge holes in his legs and arms and used its claws to shear gashes into his flesh. As the bear continued to tear Field limb from limb, consciousness faded and his body went limp.
With Field unconscious the bear undoubtedly thought he was finally dead. It bit onto his lower leg and dragged him for about a mile with his lifeless body bouncing over rocks and through stabbing brush.
After it was convinced that it had moved Field to a more preferred location, it again began to scrape duff, mud and sticks over his body to bury him in a second food cache.
Excerpt #3
Melinda’s only thought was that she was finished as she stared up at the bear from her back. The bear had taken her down by tripping her with its paws and was now standing over the top of her. It clamped its jaws on her head and raked parts of her scalp away from her skull. Melinda was in shock nearly instantly and didn’t report hearing any flesh tearing or bones breaking, but was powerless to escape the speed and aggression of the bear.
As Melinda did her best to protect herself, the bear bit and clawed her head, hip, and back as it viciously attacked her. As she rolled and yelled, it bit and clawed her toward the edge of the woods in front of her house. At several points in the attack, Melinda yelled at the bear to “Stop it” as the pain of each bite seared through her body, but the black bear would not relent.
Each time she rolled to her stomach the bear would swat and bite her forcing her to roll further from her house. It alternately bit onto Melinda’s hip and shoulder to carry her a short distance until the pair was just off the shoulder of the road, across from Melinda’s house. It continued to maul Malinda peeling her pants and undergarments from her body during the attack.
Suddenly the bear stopped attacking Melinda and sat down beside her. Melinda was terrified as she thought of what was next to come. She figured the bear would either continue to carry her into the woods farther or eat her where she lay.

Carry your fire arm at all times in bear country
ya think?
Agree!!
Firearm and bear spray.
This is why I have no understanding of the rationale behind Yosemite's bear spray rules. I honestly think a tragedy followed by a giant lawsuit has to happen to correct it, which is sad as many negative outcomes are avoidable if they just allow the safety measures that work.
Get a felony taking your guns into any NATIONAL PARK ?
Why would you return to your backyard and act like nothing happened especially where you almost lost your life because there was no bear spray or firearms for you to protect yourself. Poor little bear "her dog " how sad! Thank you, Addicus! Love the way you narrate these stories ❤️
Wow! These stories are horrifying. I can’t even imagine what these people went through. The thought of a grizzly bear dragging the man for a mile in the second story, then burying him with sticks and dirt, to eat him later would be a living nightmare. It’s a miracle he survived.
The only thing missing from these bear attack stories is the people sitting around a campfire singing "🎶Kumbaya my Lord🎶Kumbaya🎶oh Lord Kumbaya🎶"😂 Because each and every last story involves people being naive and oblivious to LIFE when it comes to BEAR'S!💥😂😂😂 Great stories about bear attacks because bear's attacking humans are of course RARE😂👏👏👍👍👍
Geez, an HOUR shoving sticks and dirt on that poor man? That’s a long time to play dead knowing why he’s burying him as a food cache.
It's ironic that Amber was attacked, being as she studied them. In Canada I'd think it more common to be attacked by a Moose, 😆 than a 🐻 bear. Thank you 💛 Atticus for another riveting story. Much respect for you.
Great point Judith! I find it ironic that most people who are attacked by bears aren't hunters tracking them down to kill them. They just happen to be the intersection of the human-bear world. I think most people who are attacked are nature lovers, like me.
I think Amber is one tough cookie. I do not think I could return to that job ever after that.
We lived in And around grizzly bears in Sandpoint Idaho. Had them cross our property. Loved the area. We're in Colorado now.
Kym, you have grizzlies now too in Colorado & also wolves who will eat you. Stay armed.
I live in Spokane, WA, and frequently visit Sandpoint! I actually just bought a new car from a dealer in Sandpoint maybe a month ago 😅 Anyways, I would not have guessed that Grizzlies were in Sandpoint. I mean, the area definitely SEEMS appropriate for Brown Bears, I just never knew they actually ARE in the area. Thanks for sharing!
I love how deadly bears are, and how unprepared humans are! ☺️☺️☺️
Hey my very beary best friend Addicus!!! How ya been? What a great way to spend my Friday afternoon watching my very beary 🐻 interesting stories and storytelling!!! Thanks so much Addicus!!! Loved these stories!!!❤❤❤ Have a fantastic day and enjoy your weekend!!! Rooooarrrrrrrrr 🐻!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
First encounter so glad she was able to keep a cool head and help herself this was a situation where a gun might have got have gotten her killed , tho I still think she should have been issued one by her job …since she was so able to deploy the bear spray effectively and she may have only been able her able to wound the bear with a gun probably causing her own demise this way the bear also survived
Stay strapped!!!!
Even in the city!
Addicus,your guestion on the first story about if we would go back to collecting bear hair after being mauled by a bear, made me laugh. You said "no you wouldn't ", I wouldn't be there in the first place. I love your channel and I catch it everyday. I don't usually post a comment, but couldn't help it tonight.
The animal kingdom never ceases to amaze me with its craziest animal fights.
Hey buddy! I just subbed! 👍
This is one of the many reasons I don’t keep small (under 30 lbs) dogs. They are just not big enough to be a deterrent, they are either ineffective or actually seem like prey. I have run into many black bears in Oregon and they don’t even look twice at a big dog, they just run!
Thanks Addicus for more great stories ❤👋 take care everyone and have a nice weekend 😊
Thanks can't get enough these story's😎
10mm hand gun
Yes. @ a minumum
One of my fav outdoor channel, excellent narattor !!
I'm a hunter. So I'm always armed when I go to the woods. And I carry 2 large fogger pepper sprays. Medical equipment. Bowie knife. Other things obviously for 3 days of hunting. Anyway we all learn our own lessons in our own way. Best of luck❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Level headed researcher!
Ambers attack is astonishing with her being attacked while she was a bear researcher, bless her she has my respect helping herself! RIP Field 🙏 brutal attack on this poor man! Thanks Addicus, awesome channel. Glad I’ve been a sub from the beginning and try never to miss your uploads ❤️👍 Melinda was blessed to have survived, terrible trauma this woman endured! This is why I agree to get rid of any animal that attacks humans when it is predatory!!!! bless her recovery. Any bear attack Grizzly or black bear has got to be my worst nightmare
Gotcha SBA & everyone🐻!!!!!!!
Those claws so vicious!!! So horrific!!! Melinda is so lucky she survived!! She's one tough lady!!!❤ So heartbreaking 💔😭 bear got attacked 😭💔 I definitely feel it was the same 🐻
Thank you for such a great episode they were all good ,this is my favorite channel on utube
Thank you for these stories 👏🏻👏🏻
I love this channel so much. Not many channels really matter to my days entertainment, but this channel is important 👌 😅
Is there a standard protocol on the amount of time you wait to get up and try to leave after an attack?? It seems like a case to case basis 🤷🏽♂️
I can’t believe that after the first attack, she didn’t carry bear spray or a firearm while leaving the house to enter her yard. I probably would have done myself the first time if having known the density of bears in the state of Pennsylvania.
My nightly go to channel thank you for all your uploads always interesting and exciting to watch
Honey what do you want to do for vacation? Why don't we go backpacking in the deep forest country miles from any other humans, where wild apex predators roam, and we won't take any protection. Sound good?
NOOO! It sounds insane!
But, ok. Anything to keep you happy Honey.
Lol!!
Great story telling, thank you ✌️
It’s like not ironically at all that a bear researcher can be attacked by……. a bear lol 😂
Epic tales.
My heart breaks for the little dog Bear. Horrible death for an innocent animal. I can't imagine what the little guy went through.
In the second video, my thoughts are that the man returned to hunt the bear in order to exorcize the fear and hurt from his mind.
Not wise, perhaps...but who is "wise" after such an experience?
Thanks for these videos, Sir.
They are well recounted and very instructive.
Sorry about the little dog - but this is a great message to the woman (Melinda) to STOP SMOKING!!!!!
I am posting for the 2nd time tonight. On the 2nd story, my heart goes out to the dog that was murdered by the bear. I have 2 Corgis and I would probably die protecting them. I understand why the people gave up and went inside, but I am very stubborn and I would die for my furbabies. BTW my girls aren't allowed outside, I use piddle pads and my Kitties have a potty box.
You only say that because you never have been near an aggressive bear. Seeing a timid bear or a pass by bear is one thing. But when that switch goes off and they are ready to kill you will be terrified. You will leave those dogs and it's not wrong to do so. Your dogs will leave you if you are being attacked. They do it quite often.
@@spartacus2650 nope, you don't understand the amount of love I have for my furbabies, or my family.
The Fish & Game had no business sending her out alone, there are more then 50 grizzly bear here, they have even migrated close to town and in my yard!
I love this first story so much. She used all the technology at her disposal and came out victorious. I love the attitude toward bears and I love the fact that the bear Is unscathed and survives. I am always rooting for the bears.
I have to say that I really enjoy your bear stories. However, I think it is sad how much of this planet humans have taken over to the extent that these other animals have been pushed to extiction or very low numbers. I too am an avid camper and I love hiking; but at the same time I feel we need to leave some of these spaces to the bears and all other wildlife. Their lives are just as important as ours. And we actually depend upon all the animals on Earth for our own survival as animals provide a lot of free services that the majority of humans don't even realize, benefits to us that enrich our environment, our atmosphere our water, our soil, and also provide a lot of pest control, etc..
Places where I go camping, there really aren't any bears so I don't have to worry about it hopefully.
JUST what I needed !!! How did you know ?
There’s a link between bear attacks and people with dogs I’m convinced the dog triggers the attack it’s constantly on my mind when I take my dog out at night but I don’t really know what you do about it there’s a risk in everything I guess
3:49 Totally have a huge respect to these bruins now
Oh how she loved that wildlife
Amber did the right thing and she survived. Back in the 50's there was no such thing as bear spray, but common sense says one waits to the see light. Evidently, Fields thought differently. He did survive, but trying to take revenge did him in and that is sad. Melinda's 1st incident she did what she done to stop the threat and evidently, she survived. The second time I would have carried a gun or bear spray just in case. I do think it was the same bear and the authorities did nothing basically.
If a bear ever attacked me and I survived, I would: i. always go armed in the future, ii. be extremely vengeful. Thankfully, I'm in the UK.
PA also has quite a few of the horrid wild-boars too. They come down from Canada
@Amber - what a smart, strong & very brave women...I´m pretty impressed by her story. I met a few bears. I´m a licenced carrier and I would just shoot into the air to scare them away, always worked...never had to shoot a bear luckely. I would not like to kill one.
In my humble and honest opinion, I think Melinda should not have followed the dog around a corner that you have no visual of. I would recommend making noise, get an air horn - something to alert the bruins that you’re out there too. I do think that it could definitely be the same bear - they’re so intelligent
Uh huh, YES! i was in BEAR COUNTRY and was ambushed by a BEAR! Can you imagine such a thing happening THERE? A real surprise.......
These stories are laughable from where my mind thinks. I always think when I'm not sleeping.🤣
Yes,not hungry,predatory,HELL YES!
I understand Phil going back for revenge
Answers to the questions about Amber:
1. Do you think it ironic that a bear researcher was attacked by a bear?
A. Yes, but not surprising. Was bound to happen sooner or later
2. Why do you think Amber wasn't issued a firearm for her protection?
A. So that bear lives aren't lost for being.. bears
3. What could Amber have done to avoid this attack?
A. NOT WALK WILLINGLY INTO WILD BEAR COUNTRY
4. Would you return to the field after having your skull crushed by a bear?
A. I'm not doing that idiocy in the first place. Bears live in the forest. Humans live in cities. That's where the two should be.
It would be great if the narrorator would say "I noticed only have of you listeners have subscribed, are you scared it will cost you money? It doesn't so subscribe already!"
Or grouchily complain about those who don't subscribe 🎉🎉🎉
I think if you’re a bear researcher you will obviously be exposed to the creatures more often so this increases the chance that an unexpected encounter might occur. Whether or not the bear attacks depends on the bear.
Love your videos. Although I disagree with not running from bears. I live with black bear on my property and have had to run from them four times now to get back into my home and it's what has saved my life so far. And bear don't like noise. They will come towards the noise out of curiosity.
Amber is brave.
The central theme in this channel's bear attack videos, as well as all of the other RUclips channels that specialize in or occasionally highlight bear attacks on humans; *is the overwhelming degree of sheer unadulterated human hubris* that leads otherwise intelligent people to live in, visit, hike in, recreate in, hunt in, fish in, and or work in forested and wilderness environments where these bears exist; while simultaneously pretending that they are somehow safe because of whatever reasons that have led them to think that way.
There exists in nearly all of the cases of bears attacking humans that I have reviewed a near total lack of situational awareness where the person or persons involved are in the bear's environment yet acting as if they were existing inside of the protective bubble of human civilization.
The only thing that is going to stop a truly determined, angry bear is a powerful firearm; and for 95%-99% of the population that firearm *IS NOT* going to be a handgun, regardless of how powerful of a cartridge that the revolver or semiautomatic pistol is chambered for. Double rifles and bolt-action rifles chambered for one of the African dangerous game cartridges; or a 12 gauge pump-action shotgun loaded with high-energy rifled slugs are what people that need to be in bear country, whatever their reasons for being there, should be armed with.
All of the above is presupposing that the person in bear country, regardless of whether they are a man or a woman, *ARE WISE ENOUGH* and *CAPABLE ENOUGH* to be willing to practice with their bear defense weapon of choice until they are competent enough to actually be able to defend themselves against a charging grizzly bear moving towards you in leaps and bounds at 40 miles per hour *(64.4 kilometers per hour).* In situations where the first, well-aimed and accurately-placed shot is going to determine whether you live, die, or survive horribly maimed for life.
yet another great episode! YES!
Amber was very lucky she was to carry a firearm, but lucky for her she had bear spray GOD saved her. She brave to go back.
Amber knew what she was doing for sure although I would have carried a firearm. Aside from that, however, she was a star. A cool and collected star. Whew.
I think there are times when you need to hike with your bear spray at the ready in your hand.
Bear spray only makes them angry
The department of fish and wildlife need to issue some bear tags to keep the bear population manageable so the bears are not a problem to humans
Poor mauled Melinda was trying to get "her bearings"?? Unfortunate choice of words.
No I would not have returned to that job.Amber is braver than me for sure!
I wouldn't go into bear country at all I like living
In the end it self presivation is as ours..Eat to live,, kill to live.. sad, definitely bittersweet..
Yes,nothing,nuisance,yes.
I would never have gone outside without a sidearm, in an area where there are known to be a lot of bears. There would have been two dead bears..
Hunter is always top rail above 6 feet.
Amen of polve
Nature people are not going to carry a gun thay don't want to hurt any animal
2nd bear attack … my vote is it was the same bear and when it saw the little dog again no way it was going to let it survive be .. sad what a horrible ordeal
Yes,nothing yes had no answer for 2nd question.
Dragged him a mile ?! Idk but IMO im callin BS
357 , 44 or 10 mm or bear spray. Or 270
No I definitely wouldn't return to the place where I was attracted.
Would it help to carry an air horn?
Does are yrs without bear attacks we win do they add up or is still just one year lol
Outside Calgary Alberta, i fear bears but if i was donald Trump, I'd just have to point at a bear and it would run.
Should have been a hea y calbre pistol not bear spray.
Amazingly sad she did not ask God for help.
Today if fields would go back in the woods and did kill the b 18 lear he would would get charged or maybe jail
12ga
Residents of Pennsylvania don't they? Owners shotgun how to kill that bear before he killed my dog
People don't like to bear arms that's why the dog bear didn't make it so people are going to have gun mo matter what 😢
Working in the back country? Carry a firearm!
Hunter is always top rail above 6 feet.
