Frankly, I don't think you'd want to cuddle a brown bear. With front claws that are 4" long and with an ability to run at speeds approaching 40mph, the Alaska brown bear is best kept at a distance, as this bear was in a habitat near Sitka that had been created for bear cubs that had been separated from their mothers. As the story goes, if you and a friend are caught in the wild being chased by a bear, you don't need to outrun the bear. You just need to outrun your friend.
