That would depend on the bear, I'm afraid.

Are Humans violent---and do THEY like honey?

Thanks Simone!
Namaste! xo

Well? I tend to believe ANY female mother bear with cubs to defend will most likely defend them to her death...

Thannxxx. it is us that are the violent ones.. not the bears or the animals.. it is the fear of man, which is justified... that makes them weary of man.. and that is the only way they will attack.. is out of this fear
