"Why did the bear do that?!"
Uh, because he is a bear. Might as well ask why a shark or a snake does "that". In most instances, in a wild setting, it is man that is the interloper, not the beast. People that forget that do so at their own peril. For the most part, bears are pretty well behaved, as top carnivores go.

Exactly TCups, - I ALWAYS carry either bear spray or a .357, depending on how windy it is. - I've run into folks here that think N.H. bears aren't a threat or problem - like they've been tamed or something. No one's been killed by a bear here in a couple of hundred years - but there have been "unpleasant encounters". - Why take a chance on being the first in two hundred years? - At some point with no bear shortage and more "folks in the woods" than ever, and TOTALLY unprepared - a new record will be started.
