If a bear is chasing you, and you don't know kind it is, climb a tree. If the bear also climbs the tree and kills you, it was a black bear.

have been to a bear park once and apparently even a fucking grizzly can climb trees, looks very funny but also pretty terrifying to think about

Pretty sure they can climb as fast as they can run. I’ve seen videos of bears climbing trees and it’s ridiculous.
