Guns are forbidden in the national parks but most guides carry pepper spray and flares. But not Buck Wilde. After talking to Buck for a day I was convinced that he is one of the nicest guys I have ever met. Also one of the toughest.

Here's what David Attenborough said about Buck Wilde:

"Most people avoid the risk of a grizzly encounter. Not Buck Wilde.
We've come to Alaska to meet this man. He is The Bear Whisperer."
