Six percent of people think they can beat a grizzly bear

No, the best advice is to slowly walk away and do not run. Running away is a sign of a prey animal. Humans are not
usually on a bears menu. The most dangerous ones are females with cubs. Running away will trigger the predator
instinct. It was mentioned earlier,but Usain Bolt can't outrun a bear.


I'm no bear expert. My dad managed a campground in Cooper Landing AK. in his retirement years. This was the advice
given to him from park rangers.

What I've heard is:

Black bears are easily scared off.

Brown bears you should slowly try to walk away.

Polar bears you're already dead.

Best to assume you're not taking any of them on in a fight lol.
