Watch Boy Stop Bear Then Hero Steps In. Look Big, Be Calm

[Lara]

Ever wonder what to do if a bear charges right at you? This boy's mother had told him to Be Aware of your surroundings and if he ever saw a Bear to Stay Calm. He did. Watch this Bear put on his breaks. Then the Super-Hero neighbor Spreads his Wings to look BIG and guides him away. Always listen to your mother

Animals don't like the sound of human voices, so that's another tactic to use.

When I had my encounter in September w the mtn lion I instinctively growled back at it after it growled at me. I will try to remember not to do that from now on when ever I encounter a mtn lion, bear, or wolf.
