As long as the above "fake bear chase" characterizes a reality, who's to complain?

Like, where is Snopes on this intense Grizzly chase? (Although I do think it was rehearsed).

Or Snopes on this account from Cycling magazine, a Grizzly chasing an "unaware" bicyclist?

'A good thing I like bears, as two of 'em were photographed this past Sunday (and one videotaped—having raced over to climb a tree) next to our driveway!

As I've been telling my neighbors, we have no witnesses to a bear browsing on Wolfeboro Neck since 1949. (But photographed in two concurrent years recently at Wolfeboro's Carry Beach, a mile away).
