Continuing along those lines with more "bear facts," ...
If you are being pursued by a bear, how do you know if it's a black bear or a
grizzly?
Ans.: If you climb a tree to escape and the bear CLIMBS up after you, it's a
black bear.
If the bear pushes the tree over to get to you... , it's a grizzly. <grin>
Enjoy your hike,
