It is estimated that up to 90 percent of all black bear-inflicted deaths are motivated by predatory drive (killing the person in order to eat him or her). If a black bear begins following or stalking you, yelling and throwing rocks at the bear will sometimes discourage it and cause it to discontinue the predatory behavior. In that situation, experts agree that you should fight back with everything you have, because your life depends on it.
Predatory black bear attacks tend to occur in broad daylight, but are rare in a campsite situation for some reason. Predatory black bears are sometimes in a starvation mode, such as during a drought, or when the berry crop fails, but that is not always the case. Predatory grizzly attacks usually occur at night, and typically involve campers in tents.
