Step 1. Kick out your buddy’s knee.

You don’t have to run faster than the bear, just faster than him.

The bear should be judged, not by the color of its fur, but by the content of its character.

This bear seemed playful and curious...but very scary.

“If the bear is brown, lie down.
If the bear is black, fight back.”

The bear should be judged, not by the color of its fur, but by the content of its ‘stomach’. LOL

Quick! Climb up the nearest tree! Oh...D’OH!

I’d be scared chitless! My Significant Otter is a master black bear hunter. He’d LIVES for that kind of stuff.

Maybe I’d better get a Backup Beau? LOL!

Scary, but if they hadn’t kept acting scared and backing away, the bear would have lost interest much quicker. He just wanted to know what they were.

The Grizzly charge below the black bear video is impressive.

Lot’s of bears in Canada. What do they expect? Usually brown bears run away from people, it’s the grizzly’s that will get you.
