      They don’t look at humans as prey, because we are bipedal. Grizzly bears and American Black bears would usually only attack you if they feel threatened, or spooked/surprised. How ever there are obviously outliers as all bears aren’t the same. But with polar bears, none of that applies, they will kill a human without thought, as a food source.

      Yeah but there’s been a lot of attacks where grizzlies follow them because their interested sizing them up then change in a second to mauling them. A mother bear is another example sometimes they will be totally fine but the second they cross your path if you’re between her and her cubs even if you don’t see the cubs she can attack.

    I've seen several bears in my 20 years of hiking and if you find yourself that close to a bear you need to slowly back away from it and make sure you're bear spray/gun is handy. Do not attempt to get a picture unless you want to be dinner. In all but one case the bears I saw immediately scampered away from me, they preferred smaller easier prey. If a Bear does not run away at the sight of a human that means its considering attacking and make no mistake you don't get that close to a bear without it sensing you. The last time I visted Yellowstone I saw so many tourists getting too close to big animals I'm surpised nature didn't hand out a bunch of Darwin awards.

      Imagine if humans weren't such a virus how many more wild animals there would be. Kinda cool to think about, but also sad. Understandable we had to reduce the chances of imminent death, to an extent, but that doesn't justify the behaviors in the thousand years since we have had the technology to keep the dangerous animals at bay. We wiped them out, instead of learning to live in symbiosis.

It was 2021 and the trail team had not cleared it since 2018. We had to follow the bear to get out. We went over 4 mountains to get to the highway.

I couldn't enjoy a walk in the woods if I knew there were bears out there to get me. So I stick to zoos where the bears and other animals are locked in cages in order to keep me safe. But I understand the human desire to get outside and enjoy nature.

    When I was in Alaska walking past dark to my motel room that was up 8 steps and down about 5 doors. I heard something and as I opened my room door, I looked back and 5 grizzly bears were there trying to get in a big garbage container that had chains on it. I was within 20 feet when I walked by them , and it was so dark I didn’t notice them… I never walked after dark again and to this day I still get freaked out .
    Fast forward 25 years , I was working in a bar in California in the mountains and late at night I had no customers, so I was cleaning up the trash and walked out to a smaller garbage container and this time a black bear was there and I walked straight to him not knowing until he ran brushing against me running away.. note to self stay away from garbage late at night

      I lived in Alaska for a decade and have tremendous love and respect for bears yet would never refer to them as “harmless.” Most bear encounters end up OK, but some don’t. These people were smart to make noise, not to run, and to put barriers (brush) between them and the bears. You’re correct in it’s good there weren’t cubs!
      At a place we routinely hiked just outside of Anchorage several people were killed by a brown (aka, grizzly) bear when they inadvertently came upon it’s food cache. These are wild animals.

      That is actually pretty much demystified. You do not want to lay down or play dead for a grizzly. Keep talking, don’t run, stay together (if you are with someone), and use your bear spray if it shows signs of aggression. A bear that size is also not climbing any trees so getting up one as quickly as possible (if showing signs of aggression) is a good move too.

I've never been such a chickenshit cheechako as to pack a firearm security blanket, and I've encountered many bears and moose. I've also had three sightings of mountain lions, one of which I had to drive off by shouting and throwing rocks. I do recommend bear spray as a last -ditch defense. Statistical studies of bear spray use show that it's more effective than firearms in fending off a determined attack. If you're scared of the dark and being alone, stay in town. We don't need ignorant people shooting animals just because they panic and pee their pants when they encounter a large creature.
