YAY!

I think the waving bears are still my favorite bears.

they're kinda not doing it right : )

THEY ARE BEARS THEY ARE DOING A GREAT JOB! ;)

You've seen the youtube, right?

i like to imagine they are doing it out of some embarrassed sense of obligatory social mores rather than a genuine enthusiasm for saying hi.

Watch: Tourists run from black bears in Yellowstone National Park

'oh no it's… them… again. cmon do it'

i love this thread title more than most other thread titles

first post hall of fame imo

hear say bi to me

I saw a real live wild bear last Thursday. It was too distracted rooting around for something to eat to say hi to me, but I wasn't miffed at it. A bear's gotta eat.

!!

that is exciting

yes!

of the waving bears he might be my favorite

so dainty!

it's kinda scary that they wave back in kind in each of those gifs. maybe they're a special breed of mocking bears.

I think those are videos from some kind of nature park, and these bears probably encounter a couple hundred cars per day doing the exact same thing. I wouldn't think it would be a hard behavior to pick up on.

no, i mean that in the first set they mimic the side-to-side style wave of the human, and in the last one the bear mimics the up-and-down style wave of the human. they recognize different waving styles.

like i think it would blow their minds if the queen stopped by. they'd be like "dwight, did you see that shit?" because they'd never seen a queen wave before.

lol

JF otm though - seattle game farm - they wave for fish

A little freaked out by this dude tbh

Yeah that's totally weird.

put him in a trenchcoat and a slouch hat and he could walk down the street incognito pretty effectively

like ben grimm walking the streets of ny

evolution is coming to get us

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bile_bear maybe? :(

jesus, that's sad as hell

If a bear ever charges me and pins me down, I swear I'll look him in the eye and say, "you're right to do this, we're a vile species" before he starts eating my face.

If "me" is a garbage can

i see that as a bear putting the trash out for collection.

bear put trash out for collection for me

I'm imagining a scenario where a family of bears has moved in next to a really nosy neighbor who's always peering out the window trying to see what those curious bears are up to.

Bear cults survived throughout Europe into the 12th century, and they were based on the belief that their members were ancestrally related to bears and could take on a visibly ursine nature in ritual circumstances. These traditions were broken up by force by the late middle ages, and now, today, 'western' human beings think of themselves as existing across a vast ontological gap from other animal species, and regard non-western claims of trans-species identity as vestiges of comically unscientific, primitive ways of apprehending the world (poets still sometimes return to these ways, but when they do we assume they are just being poets). But this prejudice is the result of a distinct local history: the same local history that for so long insisted on an ethnographically anomalous binary gender distinction between male and female.

Curiosity bear? Is that a typo or a usage that I am unaware of?

self-explanatory name for a curious bear imo

love that video. my mother's tiny papillon once chased off a much larger bear than that in colorado. im attached to the dog and she emailed me to say that he ran after a bear and was presumed dead. 10 minutes later he came back perfectly fine, bear to be seen.

bear nowhere to be seen.

What I'm learning is, if you see a bear, charge that motherfucker.
