Note this advice is only useful if a bear is actually physically attacking you, which is incredibly rare! There are lots of steps in between an encounter and an attack. 1) Be loud while you are hiking. Bells do not work contrary to what this vid is talking about. Just be loud, intentionally sing, hum loudly, loudly state, "Hey Bear", talk random stuff, etc. This is to alert a bear ahead of you or behind you to avoid the trail that you might be on. 2) If you see a bear and it sees you, make yourself known to the bear (assuming you are at a distance). Prepare your bear spray: pull it out of your holding spot and pull off the safety on the trigger. Look LARGE: throw your arms up high and wave them around if you have trekking poles then point them high up to make yourself look big and if you have a group or a couple then get close to each other. Low pitched and loud-ish voice say, "Hey Bear." Back away slowly maintaining an idea of what the bear is doing in relation to your actions. Is it still coming in your direction? It might be trying to take the path in the opposite direction of you and doesn't want to bother you. Get away from the direction the bear wants to travel. 3) If the bear bluff charges you keep backing away slowly but maintain contact with the bear BUT DO NOT RUN WITH NO EYESIGHT of the bear. 4) If a bear FULL CHARGES AT YOU and there is no bluff, then deploy bear spray. 4) If a bear FULL CHARGES AT YOU and there is no bluff and you don't have bear spray (or you run out of bear spray), then do what you stated.

Bring a friend. Preferably one who is slower than you, when running from the bear.

(they tend to be scared of being injured or harmed so they back off pretty quickly after trying to attack), Brown - lay down (torso face down on the ground and hands around the back of your neck to protect your neck. Most grizzlies aren't going to try to kill you; they will try to harm you/swipe at you though). If a grizzly bear attack is SUSTAINED for a longer period of time like more than 45 secs or 1 min, then FIGHT BACK just like a black bear attack! You need to protect yourself from dying at some point if the bear is being adamant about clawing at you.

Conan has never been closer to his character in the treasure or foggy mountain than in this clip

Totally off topic but I really love her shirt. The floral pattern is so pretty!

"black fight back, brown lie down, white goodnight" is meant for AFTER a bear is ACTUALLY PHYSICALLY attacking you. bears, like many scary beasts, will do false charges, stamp and sweep toward you, put on a show to test you and scare you before deciding if they have to attack. until the actual attack starts (physical contact) stay big, stay noisy, stay calm, face the animal, back away and focus on getting far away while facing the animal. not an expert but I just also watch and read stuff. a beast is not attacking you until it is on you basically, so psychologically don't jump to "I'm gonna die, i have to kill it" until it is touching you. most of the time 😉🤪💀

Growing up in western Washington and spending time in my dad’s home state of Montana I was always taught to sing on the trail in bear country and if you see a bear always talk to it. “Hey the bear!” “How’s is going bear?” Just talk to ‘em like they’re your friend. Never run from a grizzly, back up slowly and absolutely stand up to a black bear. If a black bear is too interested in you shout at it and make yourself as big as possible

Important fact: Moose kill and injure more people than all types of bear attacks. Everyone is scared of bears, but the herbivores are usually more deadly than omnivores because they can be territorial.

@@Gringa_L Nope, it's more the bias that people think of bears and think predators and being eaten versus being maimed, bruised, and internally bleeding due to a charge/tackle from a moose or elk. Also, just pure numbers: there are way more elk, moose, and/or buffalo than there are bears so people have more encounters with large herbivores than bears.

Adam Carolla podcast years ago, Adam is talking about it's probably way more likely to be attacked by an Elk than a bear. They look up the stats and Elk attacks happen way more frequently. Adam then kind of talks why he thinks that, mainly people aren't scared of Elk and out themselves in situations to get attacked. They move on to a caller that was on hold before this conversation came up, guy was like, i was attacked by a bear.

So much joy on this PC!! 😂😂

Bahahahaa I love this one! I have a strange knowledge of bear attack business too. 😂 when I had my first daughter in 2006 so yea 17 now (maths), I was offered the option to "watch" a "give birth movie" idk it's Wisconsin. I chose the documentary "Grizzly Man" where (rip) Timothy Treadwell got eaten by a bear w his girlfriend in his bear expeditions and I think the doctor and nurses thought I was nuts, welp news flash I am. 😂😂 I've always called my daughter little TT for the late Tim T of bear country. Ok end of that awkward story 🎉

So in essence, that bear did, *in fact,* go for a light mauling, LOL😆... Man, I really need to check out Chelsea's comedic bear mauling podcast

Good lord, I just looked up at the TV and a lady in Pennsylvania was attacked but survived a bear attack!!

Cougars next?? been some pretty scary ones lately

I found the picture of him holding the Robert Caro book. Hahaha. Apparently on reddit two days ago.

Conan, in a bear costume, nose black & everything... must-see tv.

How this for interesting comedy skit. Bear Stalker. This guy is stalked by this bear. The guy narrowly escapes this bear attack. The bear suddenly becomes obsessed with "the one that got away". One skit - This guy is a swanky 5 star hotel. There is a knock at his door. He asks who is it. Response "Room service". He opens the door and whammo - It's the bear. Bear Stalker!!!

“Hyped up on benzos”? BENZOS?! 😂 🛌

Heard the whole thing yesterday and kept waiting for mention of the greatest comedy bear movie of all time. Werner Hertzog's "Grizzly Man". Teaches everything you need to know about bears. Namely, don't be around bears.

I thought for sure they would make up a rhyme to discourage paparazzi such as "When the papz are clickin', show them your Lyndon." (OK that's a near-rhyme, but it's as close as I could get to match the story. Nothing rhymes with... Lyndon 😜) (OK some things do rhyme with Lyndon, such as Swindon. To match her story I had to pick between that and clickin' and there are plenty of rhymes for that, so Lyndon it is)

4:14 Bears, beets, Battlestar Galactica...

In California they fight bears with bells.

The rule of thumb for bears is: If it’s brown lie down (be docile/play dead), if it’s black fight back, if it’s white goodnight (polar bears are the only full carnivores). Try to make big noises in the woods from a distance and animals will avoid you, and the most dangerous is when there are cubs. No matter what, do not run, it will trigger their predator mode to see you as prey.

As a wildlife biologist who works in bear country, I must address this. The "brown lie down" part is wrong. First of all, black bears can be brown, so if it is referring to color it is unreliable especially since many people cannot tell the difference between black bears and brown/grizzly bears. Second, always cover your neck and fight back if a mauling happens. Carry bear spray, know how to use it, be aware of your surroundings. Bears may bluff charge. Slowly back out of a situation if possible. If a bear is anxious and agitated, be calm. If a bear is calm, be loud and agitated.

We live in black bear country, and encounters are rare. They are shy creatures, and come around our home at night looking for food. We have had them during the day, usually because some AIRBNB weekend occupants left their garbage out for the week, waiting for Thursday pickup. Bears are food brained creatures, and once scoring a garbage meal, they see the big black garbage cans as a food source. When they become too emboldened they are either relocated or put down. As Fish and Game folks say, a fed bear is a dead bear. We had dinner one time in Europe with two Alaska residents, and they said up there throw out the rules about black bears being shy creatures. Brown bears rule up there, and black bears to survive have ceased being timid and will attack humans ... for a meal. We were at Brooks Falls a few years ago, and the salmon-stuffed brownies walked within 20 feet of us, not concerned and hardly aware of us.

ideally, bring 2 large friends with fries who despise exercise to bear country

If bears were in my country, we'd make a delicacy of it

Yes the bell is for all bears. Don’t startle them. Failing that. Make yourself big and loud and back away slowly. Never turn and run. “Fight back” is a last resort. Female with cubs are the most dangerous.
