This is a no shitter !
Today one of the guy's here told me he was out in the woods by his house last week and almost stepped on a female black bear laying down.
She jumped up right in front of him, the bear ran about 10 feet out in front of him turned and was bouncing up and down on her front hooves, the two cubs each took off in opposite directions.
This is a guy who hunts for bears in Maine every year.. he said he knew he was dead if she charged.
Lucky for him she didn't, lucky for the bear he didn't have a weapon.
I don't know if I'll be able to sleep tonight thinking about some bear bouncing up and down in front of me.
Lucky for me I have someone willing to check under my bed every night before I go to sleep for bears.
