He caught me off guard and I managed to do 40 yards in about 3.2 seconds and get through the back door. Not to worry, a couple of weeks later he was in the yard with his back towards me and ran out the door banging pots and pans, swearing, and yelling like a complete mad man. The big fella ran, stopped and looked over his shoulder, and then ran some more. Honestly, we never saw him again.WildBillhttp://www.widlramblings.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1613729047769383491.post-36029863203061915672013-08-30T16:29:09.957-05:002013-08-30T16:29:09.957-05:00There were two cubs I sighted, I believe following...There were two cubs I sighted, I believe following mama through the brush, considering the noise ahead of them...

Black bears, of course, are seldom dangerous but keeping an eye out for them and avoiding them is always wise.

I got the bite in my holidays in a forest with many deer. I had a penicillin cure and no aftereffects except some pains and needles in my legs which made me nervous for some days.

Then he would stay in such a friendly place! I think you did it in the best way. Do they come so near to the house because they are looking for food ? OH!

I had two companions in the tent, one with a hunting gun. I never woke them and the bear stolled back into the woods and lived to tell the tale. So did I.
