Recently, the news that Myanmar's famous Internet celebrity bear keeper was bitten to death by his own black bear has attracted the attention of many friends.
According to reports, the deceased Guo Ang was an animal protector before his death and set up an organization to protect wild animals. At the same time, he also raised 12 bears. The family ate and lived with several of the bears, because the black bears were more docile in the past, the family often had close contact with the black bears, and nearby villagers also came to join in the fun and take photos with the black bears. The bear keeper's family will also share the dynamics of black bears on social platforms, and for a time, bear keepers have become well-known Internet celebrities.
However, in the early hours of April 7, tragedy struck. The black bear suddenly attacked Guo Ang out of control and tortured Guo Ang to death. On the way, Guo Ang's dog savior was eager, and he did not expect to die tragically in the mouth of the bear. In the end, the military police rushed to the scene and killed the 2 angry black bears, which rescued Guo Ang's body.
After the incident, many netizens have said that these wild animals are still wild in their bones and cannot be tamed. No matter how humans take care of them, there will still be wild animals attacking people.
At the same time, some netizens said that when encountering a bear, they can pretend to be dead, and pretending to be dead can escape a disaster. Some netizens said, why not resist?
But in fact, when encountering a bear, whether it is pretending to be dead or fighting, it is a very undesirable means.
Don't look at the black bear's usual cute attitude, starting a temper is fatal. Bears are the strongest in nature, with few opponents, and there are only a few species of animals that can threaten bears in the wild. If you encounter a black bear in the wild, these methods are wrong:
First, pretend to be dead. Bears often play the role of "scavengers" in nature, they like to eat dead bodies, and when they encounter bears pretending to be dead, they are really dead.
Second, run. Bears run much slower than cats, wolves, and ungulates, and are much faster than humans. The fastest speed of the human sprint champion is 37 kilometers per hour, while the bear has a speed of 48 kilometers per hour, and people can't run bears at all.
Third, climb trees. Except for polar bears and big brown bears, other bears can climb trees, especially black bears, which are the best at climbing trees.
Fourth, head-on combat. Many people are influenced by the network segment "Fighting nations are not afraid of bears", believing that bears are nothing remarkable, and as long as people are brave, they can beat it violently. In fact, "the fighting nation is not afraid of bears" is just a terrier, and people have no strength to fight back in front of bears.
When encountering a bear, the correct thing to do is to stay standing, face the bear head-on, and slowly retreat until you have reached a safe distance. Don't provoke the other person, don't make any moves, stay calm and let it know you're not malicious.
The safest thing to do with wildlife is to stay away from bear-infested areas. If bears are found entering the village, they cannot be harmed, as bears are also protected animals. The correct approach is to notify the relevant local departments in a timely manner and let them do professional processing.
