That looks like the silver falls hiking trail!
Bear just getting video for his tiktok
If you're in a public Trail is there any responsibility to shout out to anybody else that might be on the trail that there's a bear present or? I don't know it might be a dumb question I'm not a hiker I'd like to. I just don't want my ass chewed off by a bear
So you just trained a bear that it is ok to follow a human. What about the young toddler that walks away from mom and dad ? It happens! Spray the bear and show it who is boss , train it to not come around man.
Bears like to use trails, too.
How did ABC News get this and post it? This is something Viral Hog would post. Is ABC taking memes and rando vids now?
Ahhh๐ฅฑ๐ฅฑ๐ฅฑ chasing by bears isjust a normal thing in BC, Canada
Thank goodness he had bear spray! He's so calm about it…excellent example to us all.
It is just a kid. It is intimidating but people jog with little protection. Give yourself an opportunity to have a great fun physical exchange with a long spear and some helmet when venturing into the eating grounds of these precious bear.
Bear is thinking: Walking backwards? Talking to himself? This guy is nuts.
Trail needs a Bear Lane

I go to this park all the time Definitely bears/bear evidence Everywhere as should be expected
He may have wanted to eat you. ๐
I was waiting for the hiker to turn around to resume his walk … only to find the bear now in front of him! That bear seemed pretty docile to me (sitting here at home)!
Always carry bear spray. A firearm as well. Also be very aware, a few times I've experienced very strange things out there.
If you a rock is thrown at you, best to pack up and leave as soon as you can. 700 million acres of wild forest in the US, who knows what's out there. Native Americans know more. I'll leave it at that.
He obviously doesn't know anything about being around bears.
You always stand your ground, make yourself look bigger by raising your backpack above your head or turning your shirt inside between ur arms above your head to create a large towering figure. Then you need to take with authority and really loud. Tell that bear to gtfoB over and over. They get confused and run off. Bear spray isn't enough anymore these days, sadly enough. ๐
Dude shitting on hims elf lol
When Lewis and Clark made their expedition there were extremely aggressive bears that would attack them on sight. Bears were the apex predators and knew it until men arrived with rifles. The avoidance we see now is partly an adaptation.
What trail were you hiking?
