<strong>Bears</strong> raid campsites for food.<br />

But then the scared hikers stopped running<br />

and froze. The bear stopped, too. The bear did not<br />

want to hurt the hikers. He just wanted to scare<br />

them away from his food. Then the bear went back<br />

to finish his meal.<br />

When a black bear runs towards a person and<br />

stops short, it is called a bluff charge. That means<br />

the bear does not want a fight. It wants to be left<br />

alone. But people often do not know this. They are<br />

picturing bears as a bigger danger than they really<br />

are. The result is a dangerous situation for both<br />

people and bears.<br />
