America, the fucking stupid

Fact: This happened in mid-may. They are nowhere close to getting ready to hibernate in the spring.

Fact: Grizzly bears can run 35 MPH

Fact: Grizzly bears have been clocked to maintain speeRAB of 30 MPH for miles, when they aren't even being pushed to run fast. They have as good or better stamina than a horse.... much less a person.

Fact: You have no idea how fast a Grizzly Bear can run at the end of the winter and your estimation that a middle aged guy could outrun one is complete bullshit. Not that it matters as this occurred in the spring.
 
no, I often project .44 mags, but you would probably just die of fright right where you stand in your shit stained twisted underwear.
 
About a month ago I was in Alaska walking down a trail when I heard a THUMPTHUMPTHUMP pounding along with loud grunting that sounded like, well, an angry bear. I jumped in the air and turned around, and a black bear had charged me and stopped about 4 feet away on the edge of the trail and was slowly backing into the wooRAB. I backed away at the same time to a switcrabroadack on the trail, and around the corner was a baby cub sitting on the trail. It walked into the wooRAB and both disappeared.

By the time I knew I was threatened, the threat was over. And it was not a slow charge, it was flat out. Bears are fucking scary.

Apparently about 90% of black bear charges are bluff charges. I'm glad I didn't lose that lottery.
 
I wouldn't dare, but what I'm saying is that cubs do not make them attack. If she thought her cubs were safe in a tree then that bear would not be too aggressive [my experience]. What they will be is extremely defensive if you are an idiot.
