I could fight a brown bear. I wouldn't win and would probably die in seconds, but I could still fight it

There is always a chance it gets bored after it mauls me and leaves just enough for EMS to scrape back together. Thats a win, right? I'd like my chances firing .50 caliber rounds from a helicopter. Yeah, I could probably take 30-50 feral black bears if they attacked my family :3
They are technically correct,
Probably also lose on the technicality of bringing in the CLAUW
which is the best kind of correct.
Ending your sentence on a comma should be a crime. It leaves that unfinished feeling
Funny you should say that -
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.
If a kitten can draw blood on me and make me wince in pain. I have no hope of upscaling from there.
A 9lb house cat can overpower me, and I'm 6ft, 250lb.
Long story short, the GF's cat gets incredibly sick and has to be fed through a tube. Well one day she gets better and decides that she doesn't want to eat through a tube anymore, and that's when I learned just how strong they are. Literally had to use my all of my strength to keep her from squirming, and she was still managing to break free.
Well, do keep in mind you're being careful to not hurt the cat. Things likely would have been different if you just cared about winning a fight.
There's probably a psychological aspect to it, I have a cat and need to give him oral meds that he hates. I have to grab him and force the dropper in his mouth, and only after months of half the meds dribbling out and the vet chiding me, did I start grabbing his head firmly and shoving the dropper in his maw.
Before that I was too soft and "aw poor little cat".
I could not keep a kitten from biting down on me
The meme was always “100 men vs 1 grizzly”. And yes we could, as long as I was in the back and could climb over the blood soaked bodies of those in front to confront an exhausted grizzly pinned under the weight of mutilated corpses.
Then you notice the white powder covering the bear's face and realize you've made a grave mistake.
What’s so funny
“Apex predator, high on cocaine, and you’re going toward it.”
I could understand maybe a black bear if the person in question was huge, but you cant win against a grizzly in any world without a weapon.
If it's a black bear, I can just make myself look bigger and scare it away.
They're probably not in trouble unless they run into an actual bear. There are certainly many other delusions that are much more dangerous.
If it really happened, instinct would kick in and they'd hide in a car or something.
