Welcome to /c/tumblr, a place for all your tumblr screenshots and news.

Our Rules:

  1. Keep it civil. We're all people here. Be respectful to one another.

  2. No sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia or any other flavor of bigotry. I should not need to explain this one.

  3. Must be tumblr related. This one is kind of a given.

  4. Try not to repost anything posted within the past month. Beyond that, go for it. Not everyone is on every site all the time.

  5. No unnecessary negativity. Just because you don't like a thing doesn't mean that you need to spend the entire comment section complaining about said thing. Just downvote and move on.

I'm told that a black bear won't bother to kill you before eating you. They don't give a shit. Once they start eating, they can't be scared off. They'll go for your meatiest bits first. Legs, then abdomen.

I didn't need that picture, and now you have it too.

I think you mean grizzly bear. Black bears are usually more timid, although I still wouldn’t try to mess with one.

No, black bears. Specifically the more wild ones up north but the raccoon ones will also mess you up pretty good.

Racoon ones have an instinct to go for the eyes and the face.

Kinda the same way cats have an instinct to slap everything that moves.
