Black bears kill as many people as grizzly bears do. Black bears can be 300 kg, it'd easily kill you if it wanted to protect it's cubs. Worst part is if she has cubs the attack is very likely to be predatory too so you better have a weapon to defend yourself with.
Yeah sure pal, but you forget that most attacks by black bears are predatory in nature. Berries and dandelions are acceptable fare, but a walking flesh balloon strolling through the woods who finds a hungry large male black bear must be made aware that it might not be a teddy bear picnic. Just sayin.
Assuming you have a triple digit IQ you'll be armed with something. Ideally a gun but in many countries you don't have human rights so that might be out of the question.
Even a shitty pocket knife is good enough. Lots of carnivores get by with claws/teeth that are duller and shorter than a pocket knife so you're not really outmatched.
Just stand your ground and don't go into "why me?" mode. Accept that at this point either you and the bear both die or you both survive.
If your forests have grizzly bears in them then you'd be retarded not to. You don't have to bring an assault rifle with you, even 9 mm is enough to put down a grizzly.
We haven't really gone through the process of sterilizing our entire local ecosystem like you, and still need to deal with moose, bears, wolves, cougars, coyotes(I guess, if you're small and particularly delicious looking). So yes, generally a good idea to carry a gun into the woods in America.
I don't understand how they can move so fast being so big and fat
4 legs and strong as fuck
Ask where it shits.
If its brown lie down.
If its black fight back.
That's the rule of thumb.
if it's white and red?
If it's white then demand reparations.
>if it's white and red?
You’re dead
Good night: you're dead
>black bear
>fight
Just yell at it to fuck off, they're big chickens.

What about polar bears?
Yeah sure pal, but you forget that most attacks by black bears are predatory in nature. Berries and dandelions are acceptable fare, but a walking flesh balloon strolling through the woods who finds a hungry large male black bear must be made aware that it might not be a teddy bear picnic.

Even more likely if it has cubs. They're always hungry and mama needs food.
Gently caress his shoulder fur and submit
Why shoot it if you can use bear spray?

Do Americans really take a gun with them every time they go in to a forest?

Yes, but it's mostly in case they meet other Americans.
turn 360 degrees and run away
>turn 360 degrees and run away
You mean 180 degrees? 360 means you're facing the same direction and would run straight into the bear.
You're supposed to retreat while facing the bear. Why the fuck would you ever turn your back on a predator?
summer.

i laffed
>Yes I am looking over your books here
>It turns out bears don't pay taxes
