If a bear approaches you?

[Randy]

What should you do if a bear approaches you?

Have you ever come across one in the wild?

 

[Merciless]

I’d probably die, I’m from England so I have never encountered anything dangerous in the wild, apart from the people lol

Ran across a black bear once; shouted real loud and shook my arms at it. Sucker took off back into the woods....

And that’s why I don’t fuck with bears

I was staying up in the mountains once. The place we were staying was a property with several little one bedroom building bungalows. Each one had a front porch/deck with a fridge on it. We were advised to put bungee cords around our refrigerator because the bears would come at night and raid the fridges. At night the bears would come down and we would hear the door of the fridge slapping shut because they couldn't get in there.

The fact you're a different species isn't enough of a deterrent to you?

They're smart enough to know where the food is and how to open the refrigerator door? They're all Yogis? What happened to the good old average bears?

There's a method to the madness, as they say. Bears are apex predators in most wilderness settings and if you try to run or escape from a bear, they'll think your prey and will likely chase after you; if you try to play dead, it may still come towards you thinking 'hey, free food!'....

But, if you shout or make any noise towards it, more times than not that bear is going to think there's another predatory animal facing it and it will back off, not wanting to engage.

Oh definitely but I honestly don’t know what I’d do in the situation

Yeah they know where the food is! When I was a kid we used to stay at a cabin owned by a family member up in the mountains. We'd drive to the dump at night and watch them dumpster dive.

It was a small town so it wasn't really a dump per se, it was just a bunch of dumpsters in a central location. They'd get picked up and taken to the real dump, wherever that is.

Thats pretty smart. Next time I'll just shout at it and try to scare it.

Now you know what to do, Master Webster has shown us the way.
