Joseph held his breath and tried to remain as still as possible. “Maybe this way the bear won’t see me”, he thought. But unfortunately, just minutes later realized that he was way too optimistic. The bear’s gaze locked onto the hunter, and it charged toward him without hesitation.
Joseph’s heart raced as he came to the shocking realization that his gun was still in his tent. Panic set in as he knew he had to act fast. With no other option, he jumped up from his seat and sprinted into the woods, away from the approaching grizzly bear. His instincts kicked in, telling him to run as fast as he could to save his life.
