So if the bear is outside of the capsule and you're safely (for now) inside it, do you risk going outside to get the gun? Or do you wait for the bear to peel open the capsule like a can of sardines?
- mnd999 4y agoIt’s an airtight capsule. The bear isn’t going to be interested in it until you open it. Also, bears don’t have can openers.
- marssaxman 4y agoIn Yosemite, park rangers will happily show you many pictures of cars that were torn open by bears searching for food: door frames pried out and bent in half, sheet metal gouged and dented, upholstery shredded. These are just the cute and cuddly North American black bears; the brown bears in Russia are 2-3x larger, with claws several inches longer. It does not seem likely that a crashed cosmonaut would encounter hungry bears or wolves, but I can see why they might want to take precautions.

So you open the door, you see a bear, it sees/smells you and starts running, and you close the door just in time to avoid being immediately eaten. Now what? > Also, bears don’t have can openers. Bears are the can openers.
