Yeah, she was stupid, but the headline made it sound like she was lucky to get away with only minor injuries.
She crapped herself, and the bear chuckled and walked away.

I think the bear just saw her skinny backside and was turned off.

Or did not like her sudden change of scent

When I was 12, we were picnicking near a river in the Smokey Mts and a mother and her two cubs wandered through camp. She was stunned, then went on a rampage. I was the first one up on someone's Winnebago

I was camping in northern Ontario with my parents when I was in my early teens and my dad prevented a possible bear attack. A mother and her 2 kids were going to approach 2 bear cubs, my dad said "stop, turn around and go back please, I am man telling you this for your safety". They listened, my Dad talked to her, explained that the mother was near by and would attack if she felt her cubs were threatened. The lady had never seen a bear before, essentially had no clue to how dangerous an animal they can be. I absolutely love those big mammals...

I live in Southern Ontario and for the most part bears have left the area long ago ... but over the last few months there have been bear sitings and a cougar siting...

I'd love to see a big cat in the wild ... from a far distance.

I saw a bobcat cross the street in front of me, about a year ago. Does that count?

Ooh, also saw a pair of lynx chasing each other across the road, back when I was about 12, in Flagstaff, AZ.

Look at all the idiots with their phones out hope for their 15 minutes on YT, snapchat or Instagram. What a bunch of dummies.

That counts and is a great siting. You are a lucky man.

Maybe she was not in heat

It's a black bear.

If there's one bear that is more bark than bite, it's a black bear. They often bluff a charge, but they get scared off easy. She turned completely away from it, basically offering herself to the bear, and it still didn't touch her.

Unless it's a mama with cubs, then you might be in trouble.

Amazing that a bunch of people would pull over to snap a pic of a black bear, you'd think they'd spotted a polar bear or something.

A lot of people have never seen a bear in the wild. Maybe they're all on vacation from Mexico.

I have never seen a grizzly in the wild. I am going out west next summer. I am hoping to see one ... from a far.

Good doggy knew it’s bark was more than it’s bite. I wouldn’t have posted if the pup was hurt

And damn, Runny, you are an early bird!

Are you up early too, or are you up late?

 

[Runwildboys]

Gotta go! Have a great day, brother!

 

[Trouty]

Los Angeles, up late. But I don’t sleep much. I’ll be up around 6-7am PST. On the weekend if I get till 8am it’s a glorious sleep in

I just don’t sleep well brother. Reality has me grooving gnarly in the music thread, so I’m a little amped right now. Still, I’ll be up in 5 hrs
