>>2252770I've only ever run into black bears.
With one exception they always fuck off once they notice me.
Ran into a juvenile while I was looking for antlers less than a mile from my cabin.
Looked right at me and didn't run, shouted at him and he didn't run.
Just backtracked my way up the hill I came down and let the camp owner near me know about it.
He ended up shooting it about a month later because it was creeping around the trash cans and scaring campers.
Was pretty small even for a youngin, little nig was probably just hungry.
That's my hunch anyway.
