A North Carolina man decided to take a more creative approach to tackling a persistent bear problem in his backyard by putting on a cartoony bear costume and, somehow, successfully scaring the unwelcome ursid away.

Video footage captured a man in Asheville, bravely approaching a ferocious-looking black bear in his own brown bear costume that more closely resembled a college mascot.

The man emerges from the side, attempting a mock prowl while slowly approaching the wild animal.

With caution thrown into the wind, the costumed man kept inching forward bit by bit, even growling at the black bear.

Before he got too close, the black bear appeared to have been spooked. It scampered away, but not before pausing at the edge of the property to stare down his faux counterpart before giving up and making its way back into the woods.

The black bear had been spotted multiple times on the property, and the residents were fed up and decided to take matters into their own hands.

Bears tend to have seemingly erratic responses to challenges in their path.

In July, a black bear and her cub opted to tear a car to pieces in Connecticut when they somehow became trapped inside the vehicle.

Meanwhile, in New York, brown bears demonstrated a type of fearlessness that speaks against any sort of survival instinct as they pranced across a frozen pond.

it's a black bear, he could have scared it off just by running at it and screaming without a costume

It's just a black bear. You don't need a costume to scare one off.

Black bear. They're like poodles, except poodles can stand their ground.

The bear is acting fine until the guy starts wiggling around his pelvis. Then the bear was scared off by the potential rapist

I don't believe in belts. There should be no ranking system for toughness.
