In Wild West Alaska season 1 episode 4, titled "Bear Problems," the team at Wild West Guns faces a new challenge as they deal with an influx of bears in the area. With bears turning up in unexpected places, the team must take action to protect their customers, their employees, and their property.
The episode begins with Ken and Phred heading out on a bear hunt. As they make their way through the wilderness, they discuss the challenges of hunting bears and the importance of staying alert at all times. When they finally spot a bear, they must move quickly and carefully in order to take it down safely.
Meanwhile, the rest of the team at Wild West Guns is dealing with their own bear problems. Customers and employees are reporting bear sightings on the property, and everyone is on edge. Cindy and Hans take on the task of securing the grounds, placing bear-proof garbage cans around the property and making sure all doors and windows are secure.
The team also decides to install a bear-proof fence around the shooting range, which proves to be a challenging task. As they work on the fence, they talk about the importance of respecting wildlife and taking every precaution to ensure everyone's safety.
As the episode progresses, the team at Wild West Guns continues to deal with bear problems. A bear shows up at the shooting range, forcing everyone to evacuate until it can be safely removed. Later, a customer encounters a bear on the way to the shooting range and is forced to turn back.
Throughout the episode, the team discusses the importance of being prepared for unexpected challenges and staying vigilant at all times. They also talk about the role of hunting in wildlife conservation and the importance of responsible hunting practices.
As the episode comes to a close, the team reflects on their experiences dealing with bears and the lessons they've learned. They agree that while bears can be unpredictable and dangerous, they are also a vital part of the ecosystem and deserve to be treated with respect. With a renewed appreciation for the wilderness and the wildlife that inhabits it, they look forward to continuing their work at Wild West Guns.
