I used to live in Alaska and people do the same around bears and moose. I think they have a feeling of “Animals won’t hurt me, I’m on vacation!”

I've watched people get out of their cars and chase bears in the Smokies to get a photo. People are crazy. It's amazing more people don't die from bear attacks

Ironically chasing the bear is probably the safer option. It's a predator so it will actually avoid wastes of calories. Prey animals will resort to "one or both of us is dieing here."

A moose almost did this to my stepmom is Yellowstone when I was a kid. it chased her around out far for 30 seconds before my dad was able to quickly open the door and snatch her in.
