Quoted By:
I live in Seattle and go /out/ all the time. I've run into bears on a number of occasions but they really don't want anything to do with people. The most you'll ever see of them is their ass as they run into the bushes to get away from you.
The only time I ever felt like I was in danger was when I got charged multiple times by a big horned sheep about 5 seconds after taking this picture because I got too close. I actually legitimately thought I might die. He chased me down a 100+foot embankment into a ravine and only backed off when I started throwing football sized rocks at him as a last resort. Kek.
Moral of the story is don't fuck with animals and they won't fuck with you.
