This is intended to provide insights on bear behavior and why bears attack. In this video I outline some of the differences between brown bears (grizzlies) and black bears. I discuss different types of bear encounters including, Non-Encounters, Peaceful Encounters, Habituated Bears, Defensive Attacks, and, Predatory Encounters. And at the end I provide some advice on how to be prepared for and how to survive a bear attack.
