Автор: azvnrjax@znemail.com (How to survive a bear attack – or better yet, avoid one altogether +endln+<a href=https://sites.google.com/view/uniswap-exchange/uniswap-exchange>Uniswap</a> +endln+ +endln+You’re out for a hike, reveling in glorious nature. Suddenly, you spot a bear. And the bear has spotted you, too. Would you know what to do next? +endln+ +endln+Beth Pratt sure would. +endln+ +endln+She was once on the Old Gardiner Road Trail in Yellowstone National Park, enjoying her run in wild nature. Her reverie came to an end when she came upon a grizzly bear eating flowers. +endln+ +endln+“I stopped. It stood on its hind legs and looked at me. I knew that wasn’t a threatening gesture,” she told CNN Travel. “I’m not kidding, it waved its paw at me as if to say, ‘just go on your way,’ and went back to eating.” +endln+ +endln+“And I walked slowly away and put some distance between us, and the encounter ended fine.” +endln+ +endln+When it comes to dealing with bears, Pratt does have a thing or two on almost all the rest of us, though. +endln+ +endln+She is the California regional executive director for the National Wildlife Federation, a job she’s had for more than 10 years. She worked in Yellowstone for several years – and once saw nine grizzlies in one day there. +endln+Finally, she lives on the border of Yosemite National Park, and bears will pass through her yard, including this one seen in the footage above in late September 2021. +endln+ +endln+You can hear the enthusiasm in Pratt’s voice as she shares her bear bona fides and advice to make sure bear/human encounters are delightful, not dangerous. +endln+ +endln+“A wild bear is a beautiful sight to see. It’s incredible to see them in the wild. I never had a bad experience with bears. What I try to get people to feel is respect, not fear, for bears. The animal usually wants to avoid the encounters.”) |
