Sure, just be sure you have the nerve. A charging Griz will only give you a look at one vital area for a shotgun with birdshot and thats it's head. The nasal cavity is a large soft tissue area that leads right to the brain and will drop or turn a Griz on the spot. Now like I said it's all about nerve. From more than 5 feet the shot will spread out too much to have the power to kill, and it will definitely turn the bear at no more than 10 feet. On a bluff charge the ears will remain upright. If there down....it's coming to get you. Bears can usually be turned from a longer distance on a bluff charge.

I like this approach over any large caliber rifle or handgun as you need to be pin point accurate with either of those and hit the CNS. Very few Griz have been stopped in their tracks unless you hit the CNS. Birdshot gives you more room for error. Use this method only as a second choice, as bear spray would still be my first option.

Who would win in a fight between an ox 4 lions and a grizzly bear?

Lions, especially if they are females from the same pride. The grizzly bear can defeat and kill the ox if it avoided its horns and head, but the lions will get it after the grizzly bear gets injury by the ox's body strength. If the grizzly bear attacked the 4 lions, the grizzly bear will have a chance to win because its big claws can kill 2 lions if it was strong enough to. After the lions get killed, the grizzly bear might get injured, and the ox can kill it with ease.

Who would win in a fight between a large lioness a large lion and a grizzly bear?

The grizzly bear can kill a lion or a lioness with swipes of those powerful, sharp claws and strong swats. A large lion and a large lioness working together might bring down the grizzly bear depending on how big is the grizzly bear. Since grizzly bears have such big size and powerful claws that could kill a large lion or large lioness, it is quite strong enough to kill both of them. In this case, the grizzly bear would kill the large lioness and the large lion, but might get wounded.
