Runner followed by black bear in Grand Teton National Park

[Still Waters]

Occurred on April 2021 / Grand Teton National Park, Wyoming, USA

Info From Licensor: Went for a casual run today in the park and ended up being run at and followed for about half a mile by this hungry little cinnamon black bear who was fresh out of the den. I've seen plenty of bears in the wild, but this was the first time one had shown any interest in me. He must have been extra hungry!

Great post thanks! You all probably already seen this one . . family vacationing in Maryland woodland claim to have found a real life Yogi Bear who strolled up while they were eating a picnic and decided to join them.

I know it's illegal to feed bears, but would you try to keep it away from peanut butter? They love peanut butter! 

Not alarming it was the best choice for that family.

In the UK, we are lucky to have very few dangerous animals roaming around.

That's why I don't approve of "re-wilding".
