Wardens in the U.S. carry firearms (shocking, I know!), I personally think it's a good idea. Sometimes bear spray doesn't do the trick, and the two legged inhabitants are the most unpredictable, of course.
Bit of a threadjack, but related....
Currently, there is a policy change being implemented in the States to allow citizens to have the right to carry in National Parks. They are looking to make the National Park mirror the laws of the State Parks in which it resides. Currently, most National Parks require your firearms to be unloaded, and inaccessible (i.e. trunk of your car, etc.).
The debate should be interesting to say the least!
