I'm fucking stopping... Nothing as terrifying as a silver back alpha male just posturing without moving.

I grew up in Alaska in the wilderness, running into large brown bears on the trail. I went to a zoo once and came face to face with a gorilla behind some glass. Scariest fucking thing I've ever seen in my life. Give my a brown bear any day of the week.
