They have a point. Mostly like several. Repeatedly being stuck into their chest and tearing bits out of them.

There is always a chance it gets bored after it mauls me and leaves just enough for EMS to scrape back together. Thats a win, right? I'd like my chances firing .50 caliber rounds from a helicopter. Yeah, I could probably take 30-50 feral black bears if they attacked my family :3
They are technically correct,
which is the best kind of correct.
Ending your sentence on a comma should be a crime. It leaves that unfinished feeling
Relevant xkcd. The best kind of xkcd.
If a kitten can draw blood on me and make me wince in pain. I have no hope of upscaling from there.
A 9lb house cat can overpower me, and I'm 6ft, 250lb.
Long story short, the GF's cat gets incredibly sick and has to be fed through a tube. Well one day she gets better and decides that she doesn't want to eat through a tube anymore, and that's when I learned just how strong they are. Literally had to use my all of my strength to keep her from squirming, and she was still managing to break free.
Well, do keep in mind you're being careful to not hurt the cat. Things likely would have been different if you just cared about winning a fight.
There's probably a psychological aspect to it, I have a cat and need to give him oral meds that he hates. I have to grab him and force the dropper in his mouth, and only after months of half the meds dribbling out and the vet chiding me, did I start grabbing his head firmly and shoving the dropper in his maw.
Before that I was too soft and "aw poor little cat".
I could not keep a kitten from biting down on me

Wyoming resident here. Every one knows that a bear will kill you in an instant, but if you're up here for the summer, for the love of god please stay away from moose. Moose get really territorial, they are almost as tall as a house, and they will fuck your shit up. Moose are chill, until they are not.
PS: Don't approach bison (buffalo), or any wildlife, in Yellowstone you big fuckin' dummy.
P.S., Moose are way bigger than horses. Taller and way heavier. And very fast, not sure if faster than a race horse, but very freaking fast.
Every year there are a few collisions between vehicles and moose. They're more often fatal for both the moose and the people in the car than collisions with other animals like deer or bears. Part of that is because the moose are bigger than most other things you might hit, but a bigger issue is where their weight is concentrated. A moose's belly is about 1m off the ground, so if you run into a moose with a car, you're likely to knock out its legs with your fender and hood, sending its 500 kg body through the windshield.

This is a moose hauling ass through 3 feet of snow, if anyone would like a demonstration.
I went to Yellowstone a couple of years ago, and about a month or two after I came home, some idiot tried to get up close and personal with a bison standing near a building (to get pictures) and ended up with a shattered spine.
Is this Darwinism?
The meme was always “100 men vs 1 grizzly”. And yes we could, as long as I was in the back and could climb over the blood soaked bodies of those in front to confront an exhausted grizzly pinned under the weight of mutilated corpses.
Then you notice the white powder covering the bear's face and realize you've made a grave mistake.
What’s so funny
“Apex predator, high on cocaine, and you’re going toward it.”
I'm told that a black bear won't bother to kill you before eating you. They don't give a shit. Once they start eating, they can't be scared off. They'll go for your meatiest bits first. Legs, then abdomen.
I didn't need that picture, and now you have it too.
It says fight not win a fight. I could probably get a kick or something in as I’m being torn apart
So we're thinking that 6% of survey responders could be extremely pedantic instead of overconfident idiots?
Little of both I’m sure
Everyone can ______, but only once.
Bears also have very thick hides and bones
I didn’t say the bear would feel it lol
I could understand maybe a black bear if the person in question was huge, but you cant win against a grizzly in any world without a weapon.
