Loading ...I’ve heard it’s not dangerous to feed a bear, what is dangerous is to STOP feeding a bear. I’m sure you’ve seen some of those scenes of a lady with a loaf of bread feeding a bear at Yellowstone. All went well until she said “that’s enough” and turned to get back into her car. She was lucky because the bear just ripped the bread sack out of her hand and ate it.
There was an incident in Terrace BC where a bear walked daily through a guys yard on its way to the local dump. The guy started throwing food to it to make it “tame”, and after awhile he could feed the bear out of his hand from a supply of candy he carried in his pocket. One day the bear came for his treat, the guy reached into his pocket for the treat but had none, so he turned to go get the treat and the bear attacked him and killed him. So like I said, it’s not dangerous to feed a bear, it’s dangerous to STOP feeding a bear.
