一名加州男子在经历了一场灰熊遭遇这使他的手臂受伤，需要进行三次手术。
32岁的丹尼尔·克拉格告诉美国广播公司新闻，5月28日他和一个朋友徒步旅行时遇到一只灰熊，他觉得自己“非常幸运”还活着冰川国家公园在蒙大拿。
Crago和他的朋友暂时分开了，当时他正在公园的Grinnell冰川道徒步旅行，他说熊看到了他并向他冲了过来。
“这只熊，我们一对视，它就向我冲了过来。我想我离它太近了，它把熊吓坏了，”他说。
Crago自称是一名经验丰富的徒步旅行者，他说当他第一次遇到这只熊时，为了提醒它注意他的存在，尽量不要吓到它，他大声呼喊。
“[我]说，‘嘿，熊，嘿，熊’，它一抬头看我，就朝我冲了过来……然后向我扑了过去，”他回忆道。“你可以听到吼声，我只是出于自卫举起了手臂。”
Crago说，熊咬了他的右前臂，把他向后撞去，拖了他大约20英尺，然后向山下跑去。他补充说，当时他身上有防熊喷雾，但无法使用。
他说，整个遭遇持续了“不到10秒钟”。
根据国家公园管理局在遭遇之前，Crago和熊都在公园里一个“水流湍急”的地方，在那里他们很难听到或注意到对方。
Crago称赞他的朋友和附近的徒步旅行者在事件发生后迅速赶来帮助他，他说附近的一名徒步旅行者是一名医生，他在他的手臂上制作了止血带以减少失血。
“如果(医生)不在那里，我不知道我是否会成功，”他说，并补充说他“非常幸运和感激。”
Crago被空运到附近的一家医院，他说由于这一事件，他前臂的两根骨头都出现了开放性骨折，需要进行三次手术来修复损伤。他说将来还需要额外的医疗护理，包括皮肤移植。
现在他正在康复，Crago说他“很感激能够每天醒来，并充分利用每一天，享受每一天。”
国家公园管理局建议公园游客在熊之乡遵循以下建议:
“如果你遇到一只熊，保持冷静，用稳定的声音说话，慢慢后退，不要突然移动，”该部门说。"游客应该在安全的情况下尽快向公园工作人员报告遭遇熊的情况。"
Man says he feels 'extremely lucky' after surviving grizzly bear encounter
A California man is speaking out after surviving agrizzly bear encounterthat left him with an injury to his arm that required three surgeries.
Daniel Crago, 32, told ABC News he feels "extremely lucky" to be alive after encountering a grizzly bear during a hiking trip with a friend on May 28 atGlacier National Parkin Montana.
Crago had temporarily split up from his friend and was hiking in an area of the park's Grinnell Glacier Trail when he said the bear saw him and charged toward him.
"This bear, as soon as we looked at each other, it charged towards me. I think I was just so close to it, it frightened the bear," he said.
Crago, who describes himself as an experienced hiker, said he had initially called out to the bear when he first came across it, in order to alert it to his presence and try not to frighten it.
"[I] said, 'Hey bear, hey bear,' and as soon as it looked up at me, it charged towards me … and [took] a leap towards me," he recalled. "You could hear the roar, and I just stuck my arm up out of self defense."
Crago said the bear bit him on his right forearm and knocked him backward, dragging him for about 20 feet before running away down the mountain. He added that he had bear spray on him at the time but was unable to use it.
The entire encounter lasted "less than 10 seconds," he said.
According to theNational Park Service, Crago and the bear were in an area of the park with "loud rushing water," where it was likely hard for either of them to hear or notice each other before the encounter.
Crago credited his friend and nearby hikers for rushing to his aid following the incident, saying one of the nearby hikers was a doctor who fashioned a tourniquet on his arm to reduce blood loss.
"I don't know if I [would have made] it if [the doctor was] not there," he said, adding that he was "so extremely lucky and grateful."
Crago, who was airlifted to a nearby hospital, said he sustained an open fracture of both bones in his forearm as a result of the incident and required three surgeries to repair the damage. He said will also need additional medical care, including a skin graft, in the future.
Now that he is recovering, Crago said he is "grateful to be able to wake up every day and just make the most of each day and enjoy it."
The National Park Service recommends park visitors follow these tips while in bear country:
"If you encounter a bear, stay calm, speak in a steady voice, back away slowly and do not make sudden movements," the department says. "Visitors should report bear encounters to park staff as soon as it is safe to do so."
