Instinctive Escape
U/throwmeinthecanal: “I was in the eastern Quebec woods with my mother. Just across the hill, perhaps fifty meters distant, I heard something snap off a fairly large branch. I told her that I thought it looked like a bear, therefore we had to leave immediately.
She informs me that the area has been bear-free for 20 years. We head back home after she listens to me despite the mountain. The following day, a car on the opposite side of the mountain struck a bear.”
