Pots and pans, yelling, air horn, waving hands high...this is text book how to scare off a Black Bear (I guess the pots and pans is specifically if it happens at home) I live in an area with TONS of black bears, including a den in my yard last year. They can be scared off and should be if people stopped interacting with them like they are friendly neighbors.

SIGH It's only a matter of minutes before my MIL spams me with every article about this incident to prove to me the bears are dangerous(I know they can be). We had a mom and cubs in our backyard (in the back woods) this spring for a few weeks and she was losing her mind. They never came to the house but we also never bothered them and didn't use the backyard until they left.

I swear some idiots must feed the bears and they start getting way too comfortable. As cool as it is to see them, it's best for the bears to scare them away with pots and pans. I love them dearly, but I do think they could make a case for bear season. It's a tough situation.
