And Lesson Two: ALWAYS load the shotgun with SLUGS and/or Triple Odd Buck!!  ;)

Another article on the incident:  http://www.thefreepress.ca/news/214222241.html

Looks like a combination of the bear spray and shotgun probably saved their lives.  The sow is probably gonna die somewhere tho from the shotgun wounds.
