What are ways to survive a bear attack?
Always wear the best running shoes when hiking in bear territory. You don’t need to outrun the bear just your companions. Okay, yes I do, it depends if it’s a black bear or a grizzly. One you try to act big and and confident and be assertive, that for the black bear. If you have a pack with food in it, throw that down if the bear won’t leave you alone. But usually if you are very loud walking the paths they won’t even be a problem. Just be the bigger bear. For a grizzly, again, try to let bears know you are coming so they will leave you alone. If you are confronted with one. Be slow, don’t run. Don’t turn your back to him. If he is coming towards you, drop and protect your neck area, curling up in a fetal position. DO NOT fight a grizzly bear. If you surprised a mom with cubs and you fight her, she will think you are a threat and keep trying to kill you. If she thinks you are dead she many stop.
