[QUOTE="Robert23430, post: 2649402, member: 121430"] I had it happen one time to me. I was whitetail hunting in a climbing treestand and I watched a large black bear for 15 minutes or so, as it very slowly made it's way towards towards me. Then it started to climb the tree that I was in. I wasn't allowed to shoot the bear with the hunting club that I was with. The bear never turned it's head to look up the tree. As soon as it started to climb the tree I screamed out loudly to it. It immediately took off, snapping off multiple trees 2-4' in diameter as it ran away. It never looked at me. It took a while for me to figure out why it choose my tree out of all the other trees. It choose my tree because it smelt food on me. I had helped cook breakfast for 35 people before the encounter with the bear. [/QUOTE]
