When we use to go away in the RV to some campgrounds that were in the woods we made sure not to leave any food out over night as the bears would come around for them. There were signs all over the camping park.

I have tossed a bear into a barrel once (it was muscle relaxed at the time). I have knocked one out of a tree (it was sleeping and I was being loud, and it fell out of its tree). I have called one like a dog and it stood up on its hind legs and smacked a nearby tree to tell me not to make fun of it. I have seen baby bear cubs without their mother and took pictures from far away before going back inside. I have pulled the neighbor's dog into my house because of a bear outside at the time. And many other bear stories. I'm used to bears.

@ramapo17 I was walking around the barn yesterday and found a bear footprint in the mud. I can see the barn easily from where I am typing this, so the bear was probably walking outside of my window one of these nights. The deer never try to come in my place though.

Me too @OneOfMany. I had all kinds of wild life in my yard and a few deer tried to come in my house. At one time I had about 13 of them in my front yard.

@Lupita234 The black bears in the states only get very aggressive if they are hungry. We always had them in the yard and we would talk to them. We never went near them but we both knew each other was there. The deer get aggressive to if you bother their babies.

Oh, that's so horrible. It is impossible for me to see a bear here unless I am in the zoo. I hope that bear will walk away soon. Otherwise I dare not to go out or I may even call the police for help

That is definitely pretty scary. We don't have any bears where we live. Considering I live on the island of Montreal, I'd be so surprised to see a bear roaming around.

We have brown bears here, they are big bears, but they do not attack humans unless they feel they are in danger. This is a great photo.

@Lupita234 I am very surprised because the Bear is the animal symbol of the Swiss capital, Bern.

That is the same with the black bears. They only attack if they feel threatened or someone is near their cubs. My friend use to sit on her deck and read and when the bear would go near her deck she would just tell them to go away and they did. They never tried to attack us in our yard either. They were trying to get the berries from the bushes.

@Lupita234 only if anyone is lazy and doesn't take care of their food.. They only bothered us once and I wrote about that... we rarely see one now and they stay away from the humans.
