The following video clip was filmed while I was in a camera blind made of palm fronds that I had built next to a bear trail. I had been sitting there meditating on my mosquito bites for several hours when this fellow wandered into view. He stood there real peaceful like just being a bear, not a concern in the world when another bear came sneaking up from behind next to that big tree. This scrapper suddenly went from ’sleep’ to ‘attack’ mode. I like it because it really illustrates just how fast a bear can move. Chaz
P.S. In order to view video click on the little black arrow thingy once to activate and then click once more to view. (With that ‘little black arrow thingy’ comment you can tell that I am not a techy.) Oh yes, be sure to turn the volume up!
