  • I don’t know why the question was asked in the city. Go out to the forest women and ask them.

    In general, people and bears don’t want to hassle each other, doubly so for those in the woods. If you encounter either, you’re probably going to be fine. However, bears won’t stalk you, pretend to be friendly to gain your trust with the intention of harming you. Men won’t go into a blind rage because hibernation season is around the corner and you’re standing between them and a delicious tuna sandwich. Honestly if I’m alone in the woods I’d rather encounter an animal than a person because I was in the woods to be alone.

    If you are in the woods and encounter a man or mountain lion

    • make yourself look as big as possible
    • maintain eye contact
    • demonstrate you are a threat
    • don’t trust his lies

    If you encounter a bear

    • avoid getting between a mother and her cubs
    • take extra precautions to bearproof your food at your campsite
    • back away slowly while facing the bear (without maintaining eye contact)
    • under no circumstances should you fight a bear
