We all love to relax in nature. Who doesn't like to walk in the woods, pick mushrooms or berries? But even at your leisure, you do not need to relax. After all, you are not at home, but visiting. The owner of the forest is a brown bear. It is one of the largest carnivores in the world. It weighs more than half a ton, but at the same time it is a very agile and fast animal. In a jerk, it accelerates to 50 km / h. Add to this the powerful front legs with long claws. With one blow, the bear is able to break the ridge, rip out ribs or break the bones of the cow's skull.
Instructions
Step 1
The bear is especially dangerous during the rutting season. It lasts from June to early August. During this period, the animals are agitated, often walking in groups. Bears do not eat people. Most brown predators with a normal psyche and under normal conditions try to avoid meeting a person and try to leave unnoticed. But always remember: the behavior of a bear you meet in a particular situation is unpredictable.
Step 2
Move through the forest noisily, if possible in a group, talk loudly. Move in an open area where you can see the bear far enough away. Avoid areas of tall grasses, thickets of dwarf cedar, thickets of "burdocks" in the floodplains of rivers and streams. Bears like to rest here.
Step 3
Don't camp on bear trails. Do not litter in the forest, dump waste, leftovers can attract a bear.
Step 4
Do not walk in the taiga at dusk or at night. This is especially dangerous on the banks of rivers and streams - during the spawning period of salmonids. As a last resort, walk with an electric torch on.
Step 5
Stay away from the remains of dead animals, the masses of abandoned poached fish and other possible baits. A bear near its prey often turns into an attack.
Step 6
If you see a bear from afar, carefully leave the area or go around it. Stay away from the cubs.
Step 7
Don't run away from the beast. Keep calm. Stay where you are and call loudly for help while slowly retreating. Try to scare the beast away with the ringing of metal objects, loud screams, voice, shots into the air. Don't try to shoot the bear itself.
Step 8
You can save yourself from a bear on a tree, an adult bear, due to its weight, will no longer be able to climb on it. Show no outward signs of fear.
Step 9
Do not turn your back on the attacking bear - there is a chance that it will turn to the side. The man who ran away is surely doomed. There are more people who survived the bear's attack face to face than those who fled.
Step 10
When meeting with a wounded or aggressive bear, if possible, notify the nearest forestry, police, regional departments of the Ministry of Emergency Situations, etc.
