There was a photo going around years ago showing (what was left) of a 
guy who was killed by a bear, but not before he emptied a .38 revolver 
into the bear.  It was pretty gruesome,  the bear ripped him open and 
ate all his organs (but, surprisingly, left his junk). Rangers killed 
the bear and verified it was the culprit from stomach contents.

So, if bears are a worry something more substantial than a .38 (dunno if 
it was a 'special') is called-for.

        Survival rate from a bear attack seems to vary, but it's not
        very good.  Bear attacks are pretty rare in and of themselves
        (chances are about 1 in 2ish million), plus there have been less
