The bear of almost five feet injured the neck and the head of the man, leaving non -threatening injuries.

“Identify yourself by speaking calmly so that the bear knows that you are a human and not an animal of prey,” explains the NPS site.

“Stay motionless; hold your earth but slowly wave your arms.”

If a bear gets up, NPS reminds visitors that “a standing bear is generally curious, not threatening”.

Visitors to the park should not allow the bear to access their food.

Visitors should not run bears – and they should not climb a tree.

“Leave the area or take a detour. If this is impossible, wait until the bear moves away. Leave the bear to an escape road,” said NPS on its site.
