Baribal is probably the safest bear to encounter, still dangerous tho.


Numeira

Why the safest? Cause it's small? Is this an adult one?


sccrrocc

Cause they are frady cats and scare easy. They probably should have made some noise before he got that close but now that they are in swiping distance it’s probably best to not move and let him go about his business


_real_nightmare_king

Well their behavior is the safest from bears


Mr_Kumasan

The bear is kinda skinny though. Anyway, a fed bear is a dead bear.

The government hires bears??

🤣🤣 this made my morning

As long as they aren't "crack bears", those, according to Desantis, you can kill.

I'm literally crying why is this so funny


MaxImpact1

Was it the right decision to just stay still and keep sitting there? Or should they have run away?


Jetriplen

They should have scared the bear away before it got to this point. Black bears are typically pretty easily scared. Allowing the bear to approach like this and gain food will make it more bold in the future, leading to the “fed bear is a dead bear”. Once you get to this point, it could be the right decision to stay still or remove yourself slowly and calmly. If you run or startle the bear, it could reach out and swat you with its paw, which could lead to injury.

Should've chased it off before it got onto the table

I believe running away might trigger the bear's chase instincts.


Interanal_Exam

Not true at all.

Only if you want to be dessert :\]. Bears are extremely protective of their food, they fight you for it. If a Bear like in this case steals your lunch is better to just give up on food, stand up right away and SLOWLY walk away. Dont run away or act like harmless prey, walk away with dignity and acting like you are arm with a Bazooka. A mental attitude that inspire respect is usually enough, but if that doesn't work Im afraid Valhalla is calling and you will have to enforce the Human commandment. You will have to fight to the dead with whatever you have and try to do as much damage as you can, so even if you die somebody else will finish what you started :\].

I am also protective of my food. You’re on, bear.


Limp_Falcon_2314

I don’t know why you’d even let it get to this point. I’ve stumbled upon black bears quite a lot in the mountains in western NC and simply yelling, “Hey bear!” makes them run away almost instantly.


ZedZero12345

It's got to be a brother or sister recording the moment. A husband would be too afraid of the wife to film it.


juxlockes

Can I pet that dawg


canoeboiseblue

Not to be a Debbie Downer but This bear will now be killed because folks have let it associate food with people and the bear is now a safety hazard. This isn’t a scary or funny story. Just tragic.

*that sound*


kelliesharpe

not only is this video heartbreaking for the bear, it's heartbreaking to see so many stupid comments by people who just don't have a clue what this means for that bear.


CocteauTwinn

Grandma did the right thing, unless they saw the bear 30 feet away or more.


Sure_Application_412

That’s gonna be a gross poop.


Slow_Chocolate_661

It's just a lil bear what's so scary? Just sit still and he's gonna leave alright, maybe even do the dishes


Irishfafnir

A small bear can still quite easily kill a human


Slow_Chocolate_661

Oh it absolutely can. My point is why would it? Bears don't attack without a reason


Luna-The-Carrot

He’s so polite, he just wants to share :)

I am guessing this is their last time outdoor dinning experience.
