I just saw a video on Reddit where a woman still managed to take a selfie while being literally face to face with a black bear. There’s definitely way too much

  > I just saw a video on Reddit where a woman still managed to take a selfie while being literally face to face with a black bear. This is not uncommon. Bears aren't always tearing people apart, that's a movie trope with little connection to reality. Black bears in particular are smart and social enough to befriend their food sources. But a hungry bear, or a bear with cubs, that's a different story. Even then bears may surprise you. Once in Alaska, a mama bear got me to babysit her cubs while she went fishing -- link: https://arachnoid.com/alaska2018/bears.html https://arachnoid.com/alaska2018/bears.html .
