Bear is white, say good night, and tuck it in and tell it a story. Once the bear has fallen asleep snuggle up to it, so it has a fresh morning snack.

I remember somewhere they were saying you should remove your clothes with a polar bear. The bear will get distracted and start sniffing your clothes.
I think it was a QI episode and then David Mitchell said something like that Polar Bear being happier in the fact that the human would be better to eat this time because it didn’t have a wrapper.

That’s a myth perpetuated by the polar bears, they’re just perverts

I think removing your clothes is just so the bear doesn’t choke on your belt.

This works because polar bears are super horny. Its desire to rend you limb from limb will be replaced bu overwhelming lust. Of course then you’ve got a completely different issue to deal with, but at least you might not die.

Turn around is a bad idea
If it’s brown, lie down
TheGiantKorean@lemmy.world 3 weeks ago
I had heard it as turn around, but lie down makes much more sense.

Oh, I had understood that to mean lay down facedown (with your back to it) since people usually have backpacks while hiking/hunting, and it provides some measure of protection.

Black bears are pretty skittish, so usually acting big & loud is enough to make them jog away, but I’m not sure someone could take them in a fight if the black bear was cornered.
Speaking of which, bears are extremely protective of their cubs, so if you ever see any cubs, running away from them at full speed is probably the best choice.
