Alaska on the beach among the grizzlies. This one started running right at us but luckily veered at the last minute. No zoom. 😨

My first question was more like "What went in your pants?"
That's REALLY close...

@makeratschool @notsoloud Hah! I was walking on the beach with a four other people and a guide when we saw two bears running directly at us from quite a distance away. The guide told us to freeze and we waited *hoping* the bears would ignore us and that they were just chasing each other. Sure enough they split up running at full tilt past us on either side. They kept right on running as if we were never there.

#Alt4You A bear on a gravel beach, moving quickly leftwards through the picture. It fills more than half the frame, distance is less than ten meters

such a cute cuddly wild mountain poodle with a hump ! Charging and veering off at last minute is common trait for this kind of poodle. By you not moving you are showing you are not a threat.
