How to deal with bears

By DH Wall - Posted on September 17, 2007 at 1:07 am

Here's a visual guide to dealing with bears in Vancouver:

  1. Give the bear some back bacon.
  2. The bear will yell at you and make you scream.
  3. The bears will get tired from yelling and then lie on the ground, passed out in front of mounties with rifles.
Lesson learned: Do not give bears back bacon. It tires them.
