And for half a second I thought the dog was a cub. permalink fedilink source parent [–] Lucidlethargy@sh.itjust.works -1 points 5 months ago (4 children) I mean... If he was angry or hungry it wouldn't be lucky at all. They can outrun his bike easily, and you can't play dead with them. It was probably lucky that this was an area where people interact with bears often. They aren't too dangerous usually in areas like that because they know to fear people. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 4 child comments replies: [–] MonkRome@lemmy.world 15 points 5 months ago* (3 children) In the last 126 years there was only 61 possible legitimate cases of an american black bear killing a human, and even some of those cases have been called into question. American black bears are some of the most passive animals, they hate confrontation and will basically always flee. Even if hungry and even if their babies are in danger. The scariest thing they will do is bluff charge while vocalizing and the run off. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 3 child comments replies: [–] oxideseven@lemmy.ca 8 points 5 months ago This is the correct info.

But bear hunters use dogs to hunt them because they scare and corner them, by running them up a tree. American black bears are afraid of everything. permalink fedilink source parent
