I saw a momma bear and two cubs last week in WV.
She looked right at me and went on her way.
I had a gun, just in case.
Bear mauled a woman on her back deck late last week near me in Tennerton, WV

Good on you for being prepared.
My mother lives in western NC & one day she backed out of her driveway & when she looked in the rearview mirror there was a mama & 2 cubs on the street. She has also seen a bear up in her pavilion. She said he looked at her for a long time.......
