I feel like I should put this here as everyone seems to have a problem with the whistle. This isn't a "rape whistle". It is a survival whistle. Some animals are scared off by the whistle, some won't be. Each animal is different there, but that's not the only purpose of the whistle. The sound of the whistle carries a lot better than your voice does, and is unmistakeable as to what it is. It effectively alerts other people that you are in distress. Say you slip off a trail and become injured, a survival whistle is a great aid in helping people locate you, and is far easier on your throat than trying to constantly shout at the top of your lungs; something that will quickly tire you out. Even in this video, another hiker arrives right at the end, who no doubt heard her whistle and probably picked up his pace to find out who was in distress ahead of him. Nobody ever claims it's a miracle fix; it should not be your only defense against wildlife. But it is a useful tool that every hiker should carry.

Never turn your back and walk away back away slowly and still face the bear you should be loud not screaming because this can remind them of a small hurt animal and trigger prey drive speak loudly to them. This was a mother and a cub getting any closer could have put her into defensive mode sows with cubs are very protective and actually one of the most dangerous types of bear encounter is a sow with cubs backing away is the best move but if they charge you should stay still be as loud as you can make yourself big and hope it's a bluff charge and you're not becoming dinner hopefully this woman had bear spray too

Made we wonder how many times I was within a few feet of one but I just didn't notice. One of Mountain Lions' favorite hunting tactics is to wait in the undergrowth near a game trail (or ANY sort of path or road) and suddenly spring out and grab an animal or human. Never saw one of those, either, but I wonder how many saw ME. If they're hungry enough they have NO fear once they decide to go for a kill.

I haven't been in the mountains for over 20 years, but when I used to go frequently, I've seen mountain lion tracks, bear tracks in the snow and almost stepped on a rattlesnake. Also almost rode over a gigantic rattle snake with a mountain bike. It's good to keep your eyes peeled @@The_DC_Kid

It looks like Altadena.. upper ground, I used to live all the way at the top of canyon crest Rd. Nice place to hike if u are fearless., 😊

I love how everyone says she's crazy, this would be terrifying and she stayed pretty calm while backing away slowly and making noise.

Bear loved her voice & he wanted to hear more 😅😅

Look closely at the thumbnail…. I think that’s a momma bear & her cub? So it’s a HER. You do not wanna cross a momma bear & her cub! Very protective! Thank God this woman wasn’t attacked!🤔😳

holding the iphone the whole time? attention seeks do not have a line they won't cross.

I do understand why she was scared. The trail was very narrow and the mountain is steep. To me, it looked like the mother bear was curious more than anything. She wasn't upset or defending her cubs. And she seemed to want to walk on the trail. Glad the lady was fine. I often see tracks of various animals when I hike in the local mountains. They prefer to walk on the trails as it is easier.

A predator's mood can change from curious to man-eater in the blink of an eye.

@@The_DC_Kid Bears in the San Gabriel mountains see people all the time. They also like to come down into the suburbs and sit in pools and hot tubs. This isn't an area where people are rare. And few bears ever eat people. They attack to protect like other mammals.

Now humans on the other hand - the bears should run far far away

But why the heck do you all hike in mountains like this- if there's all sorts of animals?? I just don't get why you all do this.

The bear was waiting for a donation?

911 operator: Whats your emergency? Bear: I was walking with my kids down to the mcdonalds dumpster theres a lady over here that is going bat shit insane off her meds or somethin.

Remember… Always throw human feces at the bear to ward off an attack. It’s readily available in your skivvies.

Bear was looking around like I ran into a Ceazy Caren all the way out here?

Why isn’t she trying to date it?

The bear: "whats the problem with that woman?"

Bear: Typical Karen, she doesn’t know the rules of the trail. Those coming up get the right of way! 🤪

Where's the other part in the begging where she's actually following the bear towards her cubs?

this is a black bear, not a brown bear. brown bears have been extinct in California for over a hundred years.

Mama bear is saying,"You'll never call in an elk with that bugle!"

after the first scream the bear thought oh jezus a housewife

A meeting of the minds...there's nowhere for the bears to go either!😂

Holy. Good thing she didn’t start running

I keep telling my trainer that exercising is dangerous.😂

Her roars were hilarious lol

Lots of bears in that area. They come down into the town and eat out of people's trash cans. She did the right thing. Don't let a big wild animal like that get close to you. Anything could happen.

But wait… I thought women WANTED to be alone in the woods with bears… why she running????

I saw 2 bears at lake Tahoe. I just calmly walked away after they looked up at me. Dogs are much scarier

Glad the bear likes metal lyrics, that seemed to work

Looks like she did all the right things. Glad she is safe. She should carry bear spray also in the future.

No - she shouldn't have been screaming at a grizzly bear who wasn't agitated lmfao. Please don't listen to this person

Apparently this lady think it's cool to loiter around Mama bear with young cubs...

If she'd turned and run the bear might have effortlessly chased her down. They are surprisingly fast and running only seems to convince them that you need to be chased down. There's ways of trying for the best outcome with a bear and she did everything right. Check it out and see.

I don't think she was "loitering". You can't outrun a bear. But you might be able to out think one. She did a good job. As for me...I would've been eaten ....easily caught while running away.

Bear: what kind of karen are you

What did she do wrong? There was no way for her to get off the trail, she kept her distance, didn't run away, made loud noises and used the whistle to not only keep the bear at bay, but also to alert other people nearby that she needs help.

Doesn't a whistle sound like the distress noise they use to lure Bears or Coyotes in?

She should’ve started talking to the bear about her feelings and why she’s a vegetarian, and how she’s a strong woman and doesn’t need a man. The bear would’ve run off on it’s own…
