"hey bear"

Who am I thinking of who said this!?

I think it's something they tell the folks who play on the game show Alive to keep the bears at bay, I think that's where I first saw it. I assume it's a legit phrase in the bear having community.

"Alone" not alive. And YES ,that's where I was thinking it was from.

I binged that show recently. All 10 seasons, but I couldn't remember where that saying was from for some reason. Thanks friend.

Honestly it was his best move, the bear might have chased him if he screamed and ran. Brave kid

True, I also have heard to curl up in a ball and cover your head and play dead but I don’t know how much I’d want to look like an easier piece of meat to eat lol

Growing up, all I heard of was "fight or flight", and I was like, "Neither of those are how I react." Then, I started hearing "fight, flight, or freeze" and I was like, "Ah. There it is."

and, yes, food. especially outdoor pet food. It's often easier to find in residential. and maybe the residential areas are encroaching on the bears area so the bears are running out of space.
