GRIZZLY BEAR RUNS TOWARDS HIKERS IN GLACIER NATIONAL PARK

GERMANY-ZOO-ANIMAL-BEAR-FEATURE

Be Bear Aware. It’s a common saying in the national parks, and it was repeated again when a grizzly was caught on video running towards a group of hikers in Glacier National Park Sunday afternoon. Dulé Krivdich is the guy who got it on camera. He shared his video on social media, adding: “Be Bear Aware Folks. This was this afternoon hiking back up after visiting Hidden Lake. Just a switchback below where my wife and I just motored through this big fella, I’d say a 500+ pound grizzly, came through a treeline, down a meadow and swiftly on to the trail itself to get to wherever he wanted to go. Now hikers just below on the same trail are totally unaware of what’s heading their way as we from above start yelling that there is a bear barreling down the same trail. As one yells back, “what do we do?” “Just start making a lot of noise!!! Don’t run!” But just then, the griz made a bluff charge and we saw people booking it like we’ve never ever seen before in our lives. But I think that it was a case of the bear not knowing people were coming up as the people had no idea but even once they did did the worse thing, they RAN! Thank goodness that it all went well afterwards. Other than that it was a beautiful day for a hike down to Hidden Lake.”
