If it’s white, good night

That is the biggest lie I've ever seen. This is what it should actually be:

If it's brown, you're probably gonna die

If it's black, you're certainly gonna die

If it's white, you're already dead

Brown is more aggressive and bigger than black bears. I think you have it backwards

It's not always super obvious what's a grizzly and what's a black bear when you're about to be mauled, so read below:

Black bears have those cute super tall ears, and grizzlies have that shoulder hump.

Which is which for fight or flight?

[–] Seraph@kbin.social 2 points 2 years ago

That's in the OP duder!

TLDR; do NOT fuck with a Grizzly bear.

Okay, now when should I cuddle with them?

[–] lowtone94@kbin.social 4 points 2 years ago

When they are named "Teddy"

The polar bear just wants some play with your innards fun time :(

Don't worry, they'll all be extinct soon

I got ran up on by a black bear while fishing. My buddy was sleeping next to the fire while I was awake on the shore.

Thankfully I had already caught a few catfish as it was more interested in what I caught than in me.

So I tossed my bucket of fish on the ground toward the bear, quickly woke my buddy up, and left our supplies there.

We came back later armed to get our supplies and the bear was nowhere to be found.

I guess the thing to learn there is to not be made out of food the bear likes.
