You can tell it is a thinking being. Were you outside with the bear when you took that picture?

How close to Mr. Bear were you? Years ago I was camping in KY and when I was sleeping
a friend woke me up to tell me that was a bear in camp and asked what we should do? I
told him I was going to stay in the tent and whatever the bear wanted to do was fine by me.
