Sloth Bear - Portrait

I was very lucky to follow this bear for a good 20 min. He was walking on the road and I followed him on foot to keep the noise down and to get better photographs. I was sitting down on the road when I shot this photograph. After this shot, this bear came a bit too close for my comfort (about 20 meters) at which point I coughed to let the bear know I was there. He sensed me and then dashed off into the forest.
