        Lol, that's why I said runner instead of their crappy use of jogger.

          "The bear knocked down the woman and took at least one swipe at her. Officials still haven't interviewed the woman and don't know if she was knocked unconscious or played dead until the animal left the area. Playing dead is the appropriate response when meeting a female bear protecting cubs, Sledge said."

           

          Actually I think shittin' your pants is more appropriate.  lol

              I honestly don't think either would deter a bear wanting to kill/eat you..... I mean they will eat rotting carcass right?
