Since people are much more likely to be attacked by animals then they are by humans, I have started teaching an animal self-defense class. It starts out teaching you how to defend yourself against a charging goose or a yipping Chihuahua. By the time you are a black belt, you should be able to defend yourself against large gorillas or grizzly bears.
I already have 3 people signed up for it!

Animal massage is the next big thing. You should combine animal defense with massage. Get that charging griz calmed down and make him your BFF. You’ll make a killing.

Who’s the super bad ass FReeper that took down a bear with a knife and the help of his trusty dog? That thread has like 2k replies and is immortal. Can’t think of the name. I’d link it if I remembered.

Kanawa.
I pinged him.
He was saving his dog, nice that a dog can save its human.

The 6 1/2 year-old female is known as Bear 148 and is very used to people.
She literally has hundreds and hundreds of encounter with people every summer, Hunt said.
That doesn't sound like it's going to end well. Familiarity breeds contempt when it involves large, dangerous predators and human beings - when the predators realize that the humans are nowhere near capable of either escape or self-defense, and hunger, anger, exasperation or just a bad day makes the predators come after the humans, there's no way the humans are going to win unless heavily armed.

This becomes more and more likely when the bear gets old and is less capable of hunting successfully.
Hunger will drive it to easy prey.
