Explicit content warning

08/11/21 • 41 min

On October 1st, 2016, Montana native Todd Orr went out scouting for elk before hunting season. He was an avid outdoorsman and had lived in Montana his whole life and knew how to stay safe in the wilderness. What he never could have anticipated that day was to be mauled by a mother grizzly...twice. Tune in as Ashley and Nick talk about this crazy story, and how to avoid such encounters.

Next Episode

Ep. 6: Colorado man vs. Coyote pack

Probably our most feisty episode yet - join us this week to hear about how Andrew Dickehage survived a gruesome attack from a pack of coyotes as he was walking to work at 2am.
In this episode we also discuss a lot of America's history with coyotes, which is not always a pleasant one - like we say in the episode, if you'd like to discuss coyotes with us further, contact us on our socials. A majority of our source material for our history with coyotes comes from Dan Flores' book Coyote America (which we highly recommend).
Stay tuned next week for the second part to our coyote discussion where we get more into wildlife diseases.
