Joggers Pass Bear in Tree


Occurred on September 15, 2022 / Anchorage, Alaska, USA

Info from Licensor: "I am the head distance running coach (cross country and track and field) at the University of Alaska Anchorage. This occurred during one of our team runs in September while I was riding a bike alongside my team. There was a sow with a cub in the tree above us so I remained there to help reassure everyone that we were alright and to keep them running… and to help in case one of the black bears fell out of the tree. Fortunately, everyone ran through with no issues and I caught up with the team on my bicycle without further incident."
