Bears are WAY faster and WAY stronger.. what im saying is there not as quick as we are. You know what your doing you pry could get away. If your in the plains allot of open ground.. your f*cked. In the city with buildings and cars.. You could easily. If your gonna run from a bear... run toward trees and bushes.. not open ground. Show me a youtube channel that shows a bear stoping in 2 feet and changing direction with same speed
Running also defines you as prey. If an animal views you as prey, unless you kill it or scare it you are probably boned. An airhorn will get you a whole lot further than a knife, as will a can of mace. Thinking you can outrun or outmaneuver a bear is like thinking you can defend yourself in a mugging. You run through everything in your head, thinking you have it all perfect, but when the fan is covered in poo you realize that you were caught totally unprepared and all your training turns to desperation. The aggressor pretty much never stops you beforehand and explains how they will attack and when they will attack.
