While black bears rarely attack or injure humans, they will occasionally climb into a tree stand with a hunter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">SEE ALSO: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gunsamerica.com\/digest\/hunt365-remains-of-missing-idaho-hunter-found-over-50-years-later\/\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\" campaign=\"hunt365-wisconsin-whitetail-hunter-bitten-black-bear\" title=\"Wisconsin Whitetail Hunter Gets Bitten by Black Bear in Tree Stand\">Remains of Missing Idaho Hunter Found over 50 Years Later<\/a><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Last year, #HUNT365 <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gunsamerica.com\/digest\/hunt365-mississippi-hunter-discovers-black-bear-in-tree-stand-with-her\/\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\" campaign=\"hunt365-wisconsin-whitetail-hunter-bitten-black-bear\" title=\"Wisconsin Whitetail Hunter Gets Bitten by Black Bear in Tree Stand\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">reported<\/a> on a woman who found a bear with her in a tree stand before daylight. In that instance, the bear climbed down without touching the hunter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Roach\u2019s bear was a little more curious. He told KARE 11 that the bear had a paw in his lap, and he felt its teeth puncture his back.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;I kind of pulled myself out and then stood around and turned in one motion to then face the bear and just started yelling and hollering, to say, &#8216;I get it you&#8217;re here, but I need you to leave,'&#8221; said Roach.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>That convinced the bear to climb out of the tree, but Roach told the outlet that the animal hung around below the stand for another 30-45 minutes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Though Roach wasn\u2019t seriously injured, he figured his hunt was over for the morning. He called a friend, who stayed on the phone with him for the quarter-mile walk back to his truck.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">SEE ALSO: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gunsamerica.com\/digest\/hunt365-arkansas-hunters-harvest-near-record-number-of-alligators-this-year\/\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\" campaign=\"hunt365-wisconsin-whitetail-hunter-bitten-black-bear\" title=\"Wisconsin Whitetail Hunter Gets Bitten by Black Bear in Tree Stand\">Arkansas Hunters Harvest Near-Record Number of Alligators This Year<\/a><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Asked if he thought he was ever going to die, Roach said, &#8220;Obviously, in the moment, I tried to not think of anything like that. I was honestly kind of laughing about it because it&#8217;s one of those situations that obviously doesn&#8217;t happen every day.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The doctor told the hunter that he may not even sustain a scar from his injuries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;I think it makes it a little less believable because I think people are under the impression if a bear bites you, you&#8217;re missing something [i.e., an appendage],&#8221; Roach continued. &#8220;So along with it being a cool story, it can be an educational tool too.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Wisconsin DNR reports that four people were hurt in black bear attacks in the state between 2013 and 2018. No one has ever died, according to the agency. \u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"has-text-align-center wp-block-heading\">***<a href=\"https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/\" campaign=\"BuySellGA_Register\"
