Mama Bear and Cubs Wander Through Driveway

Occurred on May 23, 2022 / Gatlinburg, Tennessee, USA

: "My girlfriend, her son, and fiance were all packing up to go home. We loaded the trucks and then, out of nowhere, one was suddenly right there. As they approached, I went around to close all the doors except the tailgate, which they found and searched for food. At that point, I just videotaped until they moved on. They later came back and I do have other videos of the four cubs playing. We had to hurriedly pack to get out and we accidentally left left a couple items. We had to have one person watch the bears while we finished up loading to assure the bear wouldn’t attack us. We finally rolled out and heard from the Airbnb that the bears speed trash all over the driveway. The trash was in a steel cage closed with a pin, but somehow they still got in. It was an amazing and shocking experience. They are so quiet and walked literally right down the driveway as if it didn’t matter we were there. They were not intimidated by us whatsoever."
