Quoted By:
Ive had three different encounters. Over the course of these encounters, a total of 8 bears Ive laid eyes on; 4 cubs, a yearling and 3 Mommas. all black bears.
The first encounter I was on a dirtbike, but I was like ten so it counts.. Ran out in front of me and got scared as fuck
Second encounter I was at work and A Mom and her year old cub were blocking our only access back to the trucks, no radio. They didnt give a fuck and they ate our lunches. we yelled and threw shit at them but they only ever took a few steps back. shit was real, > pic related
The third time I was going for a run in the evening around 9pm. I was running down the trail and it kind of loops around. I got to the very end of the loop after a slight turn in the road and was heading back home , came to that turn and the bushes absolutely ERUPTED with trees shaking and snapping. sure enough a couple cubs and their mom are beating it thru the woods...that one was scariest because I was alone and had ran RIGHT past them without noticing and I truly believe that the only reason I came out of that one ok was because to the bears it seemed as if I was charging straight at them because of that turn in the road.
Tldr; im from New Brunswick
