So as I am taking photos of the bears with my now broken zoom, one of the bears stops and turns around and starts walking towards me. So I just started backing up slowly and talking softly. At this point I stop taking photos and turn to go . As I look back, I see the bear looking off to the side.There was another bear, must have been the slow poke of the bear group. the bear that was walking towards me is now more interested in greeting the other bear and is no longer interested in me so I decide to stop and shoot a few more photos with my broken lens.
