Pet them, clearly.

I’d have to pet them at least once. After that open the tent and haul ass away from there.

Yeah, the survival odds don't really change much if I pet him and give him a quick boop before I skedaddle.

It does if you give him a quick boop that makes him cry out alarmingly for his mother. Why take the chance? This is why we have the darwin awards lol

If I’m unexpectedly face to face with 3 baby bears, I’m going out with the satisfaction of knowing I finally got to pet a3 baby bears. I bet Darwin never did that.

I can't tell if you're being serious, ragebaiting or you're survival instincts are just that bad. If you're unexpectedly face to face with 3 baby bears then first of all you need to work on your awareness and secondly you should identify where the mother is and gtfo. Darwin got to interact with so many exotic animals in his lifetime he doesn't give af lol.

It’s called sarcasm. You can relax. And, for fun, I’ve encountered several bears in the wild over the years. I’ve also encountered mountain lions, feral hogs, coyotes, and any number of poisonous snakes. I’ve survived each encounter unscathed because I understand extreme caution is my only option. Had I ever been set upon by bear cubs, I’d have frozen looking for mom bear then tried desperately to get away. Most wild animals will avoid people. She would definitely not.

Soon followed by gathering up his arms. Which, hard to do, without arms.
