Funnnyyy! True but Very Funnneeeyyy. Lived in Alaska for 3 years in the USCG and heard too many bear stories that scared the you know what out of me. Saw a few but from a very respectful distance and I was on a big boat.
I was about 50 yards from a group of polar bears in Churchill, on Hudson Bay. I quickly got in a pickup truck and drove off. Stopped about 150 yards and took a picture. Needless to say, I took off quickly. Polar bears are huge. I was taking pictures of several dog sleds and Native Indian Canadians.
Thank you for your service.
