[QUOTE="Maxperson, post: 8787394, member: 23751"] About 15 years ago I went to Yellowstone with my mother and daughter. My mother paid for a tour guide and we were being bused around looking for wildlife. The bus came up to a line of cars on both sides of the road and the guide said, "When you see cars lined up like this, there's something interesting to see." So the bus stopped and we all got out. I was at the very front of the bus and we were lining up to see what was happening. Across the road was a park ranger saying something to the people on the other side of the road. Right then we saw a black bear walking down the road towards the ranger who was oddly(to my perception) unconcerned with a bear walking down a crowded road. Right as the bear reached where our bus was parked, it decided it had enough of the road and turned directly towards me. I wasn't very concerned at this point because the ranger was still just calmly watching this bear walk directly towards me. I didn't move and as the bear passed right by me from about a foot and a half away, it just turned it's head towards me as if casually noting, "Oh hey, there's a human standing there." Then it turned it's head back to facing forward and continued its leisurely stroll into the wilderness. That was the moment I cursed at myself for taking so many pictures of neat things earlier and filling up my camera's memory. Oh, well. [/QUOTE]
