It's still so weird to me that Timothy Treadwell almost landed the part of Woody on Cheers. Forget about the tasting of the bear shit and the whole actually getting eaten by the bears stuff, the Woody fact is what made me go "NO WAY!" while watching that movie.

There were some bears on a trampoline somewhere yesterday.

i hope never to be in a situation where a bear plops itself down next to me and i have to decide between waiting it out or making a break for it

agree w this tho buddy -- making a break for it is never gonna work

what's really wild is that there's a large gun ~right there~ but he can't reach for it

jason waterfalls (gbx), Sunday, 28 May 2017 15:43 (six years ago) link

feel like even if the gun was right in my lap i wouldn't trust either my ability to hit it or, even if I did, the chance i'd be able to kill it before it could close the distance between us

getting mauled to death by an angry wounded bear that would otherwise be a chill temporary companion would really suck

the most adorable death machine

he's also fouled up with NON-FAT (bizarro gazzara), Tuesday, 6 June 2017 15:27 (six years ago) link

who are the idiots taping that at short range?
"wheeeeeeeeeee"

this is why found-footage horror movies are possible, i think - there's something about the act of recording video that convinces people they're not in any real danger

“I think the bear is very cute,” she said. “But it just scares me he was in the house.”

It delicately used its padded paws to access the peanut butter.

“That was the crazy thing,” Hawley said. “He twisted the lid and opened it himself.”

i for one welcome our peanut-butter-smeared ursine overlords

and by his job and the camp he works at, and his religion, and 45 seconds of him talking on video...

> "The camps feature zip lines, go-carts and canoeing, “all in a safe, Christ-centered atmosphere.”"

i must've missed the zip-lining and go-carting parts of the bible...

https://missoulanews.bigskypress.com/missoula/in-idaho-a-hunter-finds-a-sad-state-of-affairs-for-bears/Content?oid=4597549

A man beside me toting a camera the size of a NASA telescope was entranced, murmuring, "They're so furry" and "They don't look scary at all." But I was heartbroken. The wild had been taken from these bears. It was gutting to see these bears stumble to the edge of the road to grab handouts from people like me.

I remember one large bear sitting motionless on his rear, his legs sticking straight out, paws tucked between his knees. He looked like an over-bundled child at the bottom of a ski lift who'd just seen his snowboard slide down the mountain. This bear made me feel queasy. He was not acting like a bear. He seemed depressed.

Living a caged life always on display, begging for junk food, is not what these animals were born to do. I'm a hunter. I've killed and eaten bears, an act some would say I should be tortured for committing. But what I saw at Bear World was a fate much crueler than death by arrow or bullet. I saw bears that had become "institutionalized," as actor Morgan Freeman puts it in the movie, The Shawshank Redemption. The film is about freedom, if you haven't seen it—something these bears will never know.

Yellowstone Bear World no doubt educates. It shows people wild animals they probably will never see in the wild. Many bears that live there were born in captivity or are "problem bears," meaning they've been trapped and relocated after becoming habituated to humans. I can understand that, but it sure as hell didn't feel right watching a bear named Teton posing for the tourists, crumbs falling down his chest, an unmistakable glint of shame in his eyes.
