Even though he was aged...he was damn big. I didn't dare look him in the eye. His nose was almost as big as my face. This is as close as i have ever been to a bear!!!

haha!.. so i'm frivolously imagining, he's made his way indoors foraging food & you've startled him, he then begins pouring his heart out to ya' & you both end up best buddies & give eachother a big (bear) hug!! just before this pic was shot.. haha! :)

You betcha! No .... actually this was at a sport show in town. His owner was sitting on the other side of the bear. I asked him before i sat down if it was safe....of course he said yes! I saw a talk show , once with animals, and the lady sat down and she looked at the bear, and the bear at her, and then the bear all of a sudden knocked her off the chair. The show was "unprovoked animal attacks"...
