From the way he left her alone after she took the pic, it looks like he asked her to take it.

This was super scary!! She was super freaked! You can hear her fear when bear nibbles her leg. I think the selfie was to distract her herself of what really was happening!! 😱

Bears are known to be attracted by deodorants and shampoos. Back country advice is not to use them.

One thing that is known to prevent wildlife/human interactions is to make noise as you walk, wear a bell for example.
