i saw a black bear while trekking once, there were seven of us and the bear loped off in another direction when he saw us. If i had been alone i'm sure my reaction would have been more than 'oh look isn't it cute'

anybody remember the news story of in russia of an escaped circus bear.

A bear escaped and the could not find it. Later that week the bear knocked a man off his bicycle and rode away. They believe the bear got hungry and the bear remembered, from his circus training, that he would get a treat for riding a bicycle.

[KLTdesigns5869]

Awww, but bears are so cute!



They like bird feeders too, thats what this little black bear was after on the railing of my parent's deck last year. (pic taken through the patio doors, about 8' away) note the deck is on the 2nd floor, so it's about 15' to the ground from the railing he's on.

They live in northern Wisconsin, and yes this one is quite small, although it's not a cub.
This is fairly uncommon as far as bears go, they tend to stay away from civilization, and to see one in the wild should be considered a rare treat. They are not normally aggressive (especially black bears) towards people, unless a mother senses danger to one of her cubs, then look out...but otherwise they will typically run off as with aversion's experience.
My parents have had a few encounters with them in the past few years, the pic above was taken last year, but this year, my mom did chase one out of their driveway. They also now take their bird feeders inside every night, or the bears will come around to destroy them. As with any animal, if they are hungry, they will go wherever they might find food.
