I probably shouldn't share any more tips with all the ridicule but I just can not not share the unique tactical genius I happen to have, whether it will be appreciated or not. Defeat by trying and failing is better than not trying at all, so here it is:
The new and the ultimate, quick to set up bear trap (only to be used by a river):
(1) Keep a branch in your inventory, spot the bear, build this, stand there, and initiate combat:
(2) Wait until the bear comes close enough and go inside:
(3) Use that branch to block the bear's exit.
Good hunting.
