A Tucson man was killed in an exceedingly rare and unprovoked bear attack near Groom Creek in Prescott. MORE ⬇️
ABC15 talked to a survival expert about what you can do to mitigate the risk of being attacked by a bear when you’re out in the wilderness.He tells us, the first thing you want to do when you’re outdoors is pay attention, don’t leave food out, and keep your area clean.
“If I’ve come upon you and you’re the bear and surprised you…oh, it’s okay bear. It’s okay. I’m going to maybe back off. I’m leaving. No threat. Lateral would be better, if I do this. No threat. So, I’m just going to be super mellow and convince you, hey man, I’m not a threat,” he explained.“In this case, if it’s a deadly threat and this bear is not leaving me alone, I’m going to make eye contact. I’m going to start yelling. I’m going to get really big. Try to be bigger than that bear.
“And you can have a male black bear called a boar that’s 600 pounds. I think the record here in Arizona was over 800 pounds,” he told ABC15.
