The funniest encounter I ever had with a bear was up in Northern BC. Pretty young bear came galloping out of the woods maybe 20m in front of us, had clearly not seen us or heard us even though I think we were making plenty of noise. As soon as he catches sight of us, he basically jams his back legs into the ground and skids to a halt in front of us, all the while with an expression like a frightened Scooby-Doo. It was amazing, like a cartoon.
