Quotes About Bears
Most daytime grizzly bear attacks are defensive, and most daytime, persistent black bear attacks are predatory. Still, both species may attack defensively or predatorily. The species of bear involved in such attacks offers only a rule of thumb regarding how you should react to try to minimize injury. An additional rule of thumb is this: If an attack cannot be deterred and is defensive, play dead; if predatory, fight back.

What species of bears live in the area you will be visiting: black bears, grizzly bears, or both? I have already documented that black bear females with cubs are much less dangerous in sudden encounters compared to grizzly bear females with cubs. In areas where both species are found, it is sometimes difficult even for the experts to identify whether a given individual is a black bear or a grizzly. When in doubt, assume the most dangerous case—that it is a grizzly.

I think he just loved being with the bears because they didn't make him feel bad. I get it too. When he was with the bears, they didn't care that he was kind of weird, or that he'd gotten into trouble for drinking too much and using drugs(which apparently he did a lot of). They didn't ask him a bunch of stupid questions about how he felt, or why he did what he did. They just let him be who he was.

To see the yellow fritillaries burst forth after the deep snows of winter and know that the bears are soon to follow is to be attentive to wild nature's seasonal fugue of infinite composition and succession.
