I wrestled a black bear in a carnival when I was a teenager. It was muzzled and declawed. The smell afterwards was so bad I had to go home and wash my clothes and shower. Besides learning that bears smell terrible I also learned that they are extremely strong. The bear trainer had the bear start standing on its hind legs and when wrestlers who were much bigger than I was ( 130# ) tried to wrestle the way they would a person the bear would toss them on the ground and then pile on them and beat them with its forearms. When I wrestled the bear I hit it in the chest with my shoulder and knocked it on its back and then jumped on top of it. The bear trainer got mad and threw me out of the ring.
