Side note: In Sweden, the general advice for bears is “play dead”, but maybe Canadian bears are different?
Depends on the bear. Black bears are cowards and you can generally just make noise or act big to scare them. Brown or grizzlies you’ll want to play dead and pray then don’t try to eat you. Polar bears, good luck, better have one of those boxes really close by.
The rule on black bears can go out the window if they are worried about their young, super hungry, or young and inexperienced with humans.
Someone with better knowledge can correct me but that’s what I was taught when I was a kid.
Let me see if I remember this correctly…
If it is black, fight back
If it is brown, lie down
If it is white, good night
We have rattle snakes up here?
Ok, but what do I do if I encounter all 4 at the same time?
You freeze and walk away slowly for your life being as loud as possible.
