The other man could not climb trees. 72) So he threw himself on the ground, closed his eyes and pretended to be dead. 73) The bear came up and sniffed at the man’s head. It put its nose close to his mouth and ears. 74) The man held his breath. The bear thought he was dead and walk away, for bears never touch dead men.
