Surely you should be running, not taking photos?

Black bears are usually pretty passive towards humans. They'll rip a car open like a sardine can if they smell remotely food like - even toothpaste. They'll solo the forst 3 pitches of the nose to bite the top off a Nalgene. But attacks on people are rare. We shat ourselves first time, but after a while and despite repeated shoo-ing, he just kept coming back - like a dog waiting for a morsel.

Nice. He seems to have a collar on - don't fancy taking it for a walk..
