I heard about playing dead is a good way of stopping a bear attacking, but thought it was a myth so looked up on the internet and here’s what to do.
Grizzly bears generally attack to defend territory and cubs. The best course of action if attacked by a grizzly bear is to play dead. After all, a dead person is no longer a threat. … In general, if a black bear attacks, it’s to eat you.

But you can give them to the birds and bees.I think the general idea Red is to avoid attack and generally different bears require different forms of action. It is best rather like strong swimmers in a rip tide to vacate the scene sideways ( parallel to the beach) – it is less threatening to a bear. Appear large and make threatening noises – clap your hands overhead – I think that is for black and browns. Being in the narcissist camp with the biggest tent, I would find appearing large quite easy.
You can easily spot a grizzly they have got the hump. Brown bears bears are bigger which is something I didnt know.A girl my sister knew a long time ago went camping in Canada and was eaten by a bear. The bear must have been hungry – they would not normally attack humans – or maybe she disturbed the bear and it felt threatened. I did not ask the detail as my sister was somewhat upset by the news.( I did write about this before a long time ago describing her as a friend – she wasn’t that close actually so I am correcting that.
They say its best to travel in threes and make a lot of noises when on trails. Which would defeat the object for me. The bear will avoid you apparently. What you dont want to do is turn a bend and be confronted by a big brown bear.
Happy hunting !P.s – I slept straight through the night ( 8 hours ) and discovered someone had attacked the cheese. It was gone !
If you go down to the woods today
You’re sure of a big surprise
If you go down to the woods today
You’d better go in disguise.
For every bear that ever there was
Will gather there for certain,
Because today’s the day
The Teddy Bears have their picnic.Big problem is – if you go down you could be on the menu !
Personally I’ve no intension of getting that close to bears unless at a zoo. Polar Bears are a menace in Canada what do you do if confronted by one of them? Also I’ve heard they team up with lions and tigers, so I’ve heard on TV, oh my!

But you can give them to the birds and bees.The electrician came around
immediately due to the emergency nature of my call.
He told me a complete rewiring
is necessary. I said to him..‘ Couldn’t we get away with haywired. ”
He said no – it’s been wrong since birth !!!
Red if faced with a Polar Bear you will go white and he hopefully wont see you.
How does one prevent a crocodile attack Gamble?
My advice would be ‘don’t go white-water rafting on African rivers’
I think you’re in De Nile, Drone. Sorry about the terrible pun.

But you can give them to the birds and bees.A good bit of flash news Drone
The croc victim wrote
“It sounds cliched, but if you’re going to live thinking you’re going to regret everything, you’re never going to have a fulfilled life.”
Yes but on the other hand you don’t want to fulfill a crocodile either.
I am putting Zambia to red
Be warned Davies also.
It’s a question surely of
whether you want to get yourself wet in life ?Do you want to live
or live well and maybe
more dangerously and have
a shorter innings.From where I am sitting
I think it’s a case of
being as deadly careful
as Moe.Ill pop out and see the
Xmas decorations then
batten down the hatches
lock the door and keep
a close eye on
the second hand !My day is all up the creek
Xmas decorations will have to
wait – if only I was like Moe
and could act sensibly.
Time to put the kettle on
for another brew. Then I am off !!!It seems I have managed to get gamble posting. Again. Excellent stuff
Little bit of vitriol from Ginge but thats expected. Small intellects usually lash out👍
Drone and Rummy brilliant interventions
More please
Even you Ginge.
A swim beckons
The beached whale awakens
Mr P is stuck indoors watching replays of Ronnie o sullivan 147 jobs
Drone is sharpening his quill for the next outpouring. And more badly needed
Nathan is at work. Must say he has gone very quiet.
Wonder if the Baron is awake yet😀😀
You will get a lot more
from me Ricky but of this
variety I’m hoping a cup of tea
may sort me out though
I have slept like a top
not even a toilet visit
during the dark hours
Amazing but look
I’m wrongly wired from
top to bloody bottom !!?You’re a class act Lake
you secretive bustard.
What’s your pension ?
Whose in your will ?
What tent do you own ?
Make and size
Four or two man ?
Do you own two passports ?Does anyone remember that Warner Herzog documentary ‘Grizzly Man’? Fascinating but gruesome. There’s an interesting ‘In Our Time’ about crocodiles although they didn’t mention the fact that crocs actually hibernate when it’s too hot. I’m saying that in my best ‘notalotofpeopleknowthat’ Michael Caine voice.
