    Bears can run 30 miles per hour. Most can't outrun or out bike a bear to get away. There are a lot of things one can do, but that's for a different thread.

    Lucky guy. He is lucky the bear was not interested.

    You've got to admit; if you were out hunting for bear, and witnessed THAT ; it'd make it tough to pull the trigger!

    Cute dancing video. Bears can be funny and interesting...but enjoy them from a distance...as the video warned at the end.

    Our summer season is filled with bear/people incidents that usually do not turn out well for the people.

    This morning I was watching a Blue Jay at my feeder. A mole or mouse ran out from under the pine tree next to the feeder. That Blue Jay was on him in a heartbeat. He killed and was eating him in about a minute. Kind of like a bear catching a human.

    John,
    A bear would never eat you; for the same reason that they'd never eat me...
    They don't know where we've been; but it HAD to be pretty miserable!
    They like their food nice and tender!

    Wow! Hunting bear with a baseball bat is about as tough as Hog-Hunting with dogs, and only a knife...
