Brigitte Grisanti Black Bear Encounters


I moved to the Smoky Mountains about 12 years ago. I never seen a black bear in my life. I woke up one morning to go to work, and there was 400 pound bear sitting next to my car. I was very scared and waited to move back to Florida. I started looking into the black bears and how they react to people in the wild.
I am now fascinated by them and teach other people how to react in the Smokies when they see the bears. Many people will run from a bear, that is wrong. You have to act like another bear and make loud noises.
