Dan Richman missed the "do not disturb" sign. The 54-year-old hiker interrupted a pair of bears that were trying to mate.
He was going along a trail when he saw a bear on its hind legs 50 to 100 feet away. It was his first time seeing a bear in person. "I was pretty freaked out," he tells KTLA.
Richman turned around to leave and saw a second bear much closer. His attempt to scare it off by yelling failed, and it attacked when he tried to run by it. Richman played dead, as he was close to.
He ran off, not realizing how injured he was until he reached safety. He had a head injury and multiple cuts to his head, legs, feet, and torso.
Well then, don't ever surprise whoever it is during their dance, it may have a deadly consequences. Just a thought.
