I have an interesting book 4 Seconds Until Impact

Tells of all sorts of encounters of the worst kind with all types of critters.

Many bear attacks but huge amount of coyote attacks and cougars too.

The author reccomends packing heat but also gives high praise to bear spray.

My area has had MANY coyote attacks so I always pack heat.

Two legged critters are more prevalent in my area.
