Watch what this Bear does.. Grizzly bears can run up to 35 mph, faster than a racehorse over short distances, which is why distance and barriers matter so much in bear encounters. Despite their size, bears have an excellent sense of smell—up to 7× stronger than a bloodhound—and can detect food or people from miles away. Bears often use bluff charges and vocalizations to scare off perceived threats without actually attacking, especially when something blocks their path. 💀#wildlife #wildernesssea
