Occurred on June 22, 2024 / Gatlinburg, Tennessee, USA
Info from Licensor: "My husband and I stayed in a cabin in Gatlinburg, TN in June 2024. I was walking from the cabin to the nearby pool and ran into a bit of an obstacle on the way. I was excited when I first saw the bear. It was my first encounter with a wild bear. I got a little nervous when it started walking toward me, then a little more nervous when it stood up. I didn't waste time after that walking back to the cabin."
