Grisly bear in my back yard help
The Jull/Slave noise theory has promise for bear proofing the Discovery.
I had cut out pipes on my 56 Chevy for drag racing capped straight exhaust pipes under the doors. When drag racing, you took the caps off for straight out exhaust/power and sound to by pass the muffler. If installed on a Land Rover, the bear would hear you coming.
I have been doing more research on the tweakrover urination on a Discovery theory.
I have checked the official Owners Manual, Passport to Service, Maintenance Manual, the Land Rover website and I cant find any reference for urinating on a Land Rover.
Maybe they do this on Jeeps. I will look into this.

I was under the impression a shotgun even with those rounds wouldn't do to much to a bear that size (except **** it off), unless of course you shot it at very short range, but then again maybe I am wrong about it working that close, and who is stupid enough to get that close to a grizzly to test that theory?

The larger 3 1/2 inch loads are you best bet in protection. As far as the Taurs judge goes that will not do crap, it shoots the 410 shotgun shells. Sort of like the difference between a .223 and a 50 cal. I find that the best way to keep from running into a bear is to eat a large amount of beans and meat the night before an outting. Then make sure to drive with the windows down and fart uncontrollably, the smell and horiffic sound should keep them away.
"Alright you Primitive Screwheads, listen up! You see this? This... is my boomstick! The twelve-gauge double-barreled Remington. S-Mart's top of the line. You can find this in the sporting goods department. That's right, this sweet baby was made in Grand Rapids, Michigan. Retails for about a hundred and nine, ninety five. It's got a walnut stock, cobalt blue steel, and a hair trigger. That's right. Shop smart. Shop S-Mart."

Thank you everyone.
This post has been a lot of fun, and we got our minds out of the garage and now thinking about the real world.
My wife has suggested that I get a fleet of Land Rovers and start a bear viewing business.
This sounds good to me.
Check this tour company out, they do boat tours on the Mainland to see the Grizzlies.

Good pictures of bears and what they do.
My house is about 40 miles from where these pictures where taken.
