    The bear probably thought they had just come out of hibernation in their cave and should be left alone. Quite courteous.

      Yeah. And bear thought they will be ravenous after hibernating so he took a step back and waited until they left before walking pass their hibernating hole. 😆 Smart bear. Stay away from humans.

      @bilisha coli yeah. Here in Michigan they’re pretty rare until you get an hour or two up north. (Lower Peninsula). There are a few black bears north of Grand Rapids but if you see one, take a picture because it’s rare.
      Honestly, the few privileged times I’ve been able to actually view one, I smell them first. I feel like there is a very distinct smell about them. No doubt though that there have been other “encounters” that I had zero awareness or idea about. I think they’re really cool creatures. Not interested in having a conversation close up with one lol, but I really do think they’re cool. From a distance.

    Here near Los Angeles a bear was walking around a neighborhood and one of the news helicopters was following it taking pictures. The bear is in front of the garage and decides to follow the sidewalk around the corner toward the front door. At the same time a guy walks out the front door and with his head buried in his cell phone. The news guy is freaking out. When the guy is about 8 feet from the corner the bear comes around the corner and sees the guy. At the same moment, the guy less than 8' away gets his head out if his phone, looks up and sees the bear. The guy freaks, spins around and runs back to his front door. The bear freaks, spins around and runs back around the corner to get away from the crazy human. I couldn't stop laughing, because like everyone watching I'd seen him with his head in the phone and was yelling at the TV, "Look up! Look up!" 🤣😅😂 They both did

It is amazing that an animal that large you will never see it or hear it until it just appears. I have surprised them as well and it is not the best feeling as things can get "spicy" quickly. I don't go out without bear mace and I make a lot of noise. I also take a good look around me before I approach an area even if it is just my porch or yard.

    Yeah this is the thing that many people do not get about animals... a lot of the time they get just as spooked as is when we cross paths with them. Like how the bear froze the moment it saw the people. This happened to me just yesterday when I was walking along a back path. It was a good day but I noticed what looked like pig tracks everywhere. I was a little bit worried because it was a more secluded area and I only had my phone with me at the time. And sure enough, a wild boar walks out right in front of me (a ways away like 15-20 ft). My biggest fear was that it would charge since it noticed me immediately and the path I was walking was unpaved, covered in loose rocks that were easy to trip on, there was only one sure way back to a main road, the pig looked much bigger than my pitbull, and there was nothing in my immediate surrounds to defend my self with (like maybe a rock but I live in a dry desert-ish area that only really has one kind of thorn trees so nothing like a decent sized stick or log to keep it a ways away or fight back without it being close enough to bite me). But when I looked at the pig I realized how lucky I was, it looked scared. Just like me (I know that fear can be bad when encountering a wild animal, but it was a mutual reaction so it made me less worried). Like it was not sure what to do to be safest, so like me it was just standing there deciding what to do (likely thinking fight or flight... maybe even food idk). We clearly had met eyes so I used simple and universal body language. I dipped my head and calmly walked back the way I came. looking back every five steps and listening for any movement. When I was feeling like there was enough space between the pig me and the path back to the main road, I heard something and turned to see the pig making its way into the bushes. I cannot help but see animals like I do people. And what I observed from the pig was relief when I walked away. I just want to say that it looked beautiful and I am so glad that it was like me in just wanting to be able to walk away. (Also anytime I say pig 🐖 I actually mean boar 🐗 like the emoji.... I’m just so used to calling them pigs 🐷). (Also I know no one asked for the story but I needed to vent because I could not tell anyone because I like walking that path and I would not be allowed to walk it again if my parents found out what happened lol).

      Last year I was driving up to Keene, NH. Pickup right in front of me slams on the brakes and I come to stop. The next thing I see is a 300+ pound black bear easily the size of the one in this video being chased across the street by a dog the size of a beagle yapping at its heels. The bear dove into some brush and the little dog circled back and went back to his front yard.

He walked out to get the grill, and when he looked back up again a little way from it, the "grill" turned its head and saw him. They scared the **** out of each other and ran opposite directions 😂

    Last fall I was out picking black berries and, when walking back to the house with two filled homer buckets of goodies, I came around a bend and was face to face with a big guy like this one. Usually they run off well before I see them, but I must have been up wind from him this time. He was also picking berries... and for a second we both kinda looked at each other like "Oh sh$t...". Then the big guy looks at my buckets, sniffs the air a bit and licks his chops. So I calmly said "I don't think so bud. Pick your own berries!" Sound of my voice startled him and ran off. For as big as they are, they sure can run fast.
    I am pretty convinced that Black bears are big goofballs who just want food. If you don't poke them and don't leave food laying around you'll likely never see them.

    Beautiful and majestic. Gorgeous stout animals. I see them regularly in my neighborhood. Everyone needs to respect wildlife, including bears, but a single black bear without cubs just out looking for food is not going to hunt you down and go for the guts. They are not dominantly aggressive - meaning they don't seek us out just to kill us. We need to remember that we took their land and put up houses and buildings. We are the uninvited guests, and they're just trying to coexist. They do much better at that than most humans would.
