I entered a forest carrying my trusty primitive stone axe ... and there it was... a 10 foot bear up on it's hind legs with murder in it's eyes.......
So I backed away slowly....but of course the bear charged.
As it got close I swung my stone axe at it once, then again, then a third time, the axe having little affect on this monster. But it did give me time to increase my distance away from that bear and it eventually gave up interest in me, turned it's back and headed deeper into the forest.
