wow, I'm surprised how many fatal attacks there are from blacks. maybe it's a "frequency x probability" thing where attacks happen so much more often, a lower chance of death still means an overall higher count.
I mean, I'm not saying we should test this more, but I generally though the black bears mostly avoided you.
The blacks are generally known to be more aggressive.
Grizzlies are territorial but not really interested in people as food so the common advice is to play dead. They just don't want you around.
Black bears will generally try to avoid people, but if they are hungry, they will absolutely attack a human. They will also attack if you accidentally sneak up on one; an important thing to know when hiking.
The general saying is "If it's brown, lie down. If it's black, fight back. If it's white, goodnight."
You don't fuck with Polar bears.
what kind of bear racism is this >!!<
Don't most bears generally avoid humans? I'm guessing most of these attacks were self-defense or getting between her mother and her cubs.
yeah that's what I thought. Grizzlies and Polars will F you up much more 'often' - but black bears I thought were much less aggressive (as a default) towards humans.

What I'm saying is you have an excellent chance of petting the fluffy puppy and making it out alive. Definitely pet the fluffy puppy.

I heard that if you Boop them on the nose, they become your life long protector.
Well the bear is going to "pet" you
Yes, I believe it will.
if not fren why fren shaped
Pfft... I'm an apex predator too. Why isn't the bear afraid of me?
Some of them are, if you raise up your arms and scream really loud. Maybe not the one pictured though.
Or if you fire your AR up into the air.
Can a pet dat daaawg?
It's the white ones you need to watch out for.
Can I pet that dog?
Strange. I guess this is the original but I've seen an edited version where a little girl was asking to pet a bear
I thought about posting that version (it was so fitting) but I wanted to make sure the original video got credit.

I love this clip. My wife and I are always repeating it
What the fuck is wrong with his feet?
They look like normal bear peets to me?
And that was the last we heard of that guy.
Damn that’s a sexy bear.
