While we love seeing the cute bear interactions, like these two cubs that playfully entered a nursing home recently in North Carolina, not all bear/human encounters are that peaceful.
This is a close encounter that is truly of the bear kind. A bow hunter just shared video of a black bear that came within yards of him. Fortunately, he lived to tell about it video included.
I would like to say I'm surprised, but I'm not. A new video shows some hikers who decided it would be a great idea to take selfies with a black bear they met on the trail.
You might remember hearing the story about a young bear that wandered into Rock Springs, Wyoming in early October. Good news. That bear now has a new home and lots of new animal friends.
I'm almost afraid to share this bear video I've come across. My fear is that a touron will see it and think that bears are like cuddly humans. They're not although this mama bear does seem to have some very human-like scratching abilities.
