AHhhh!

I saw a playful young polar bear at the zoo the other day. He was doing tricks - so cute. Also, the chillest sun bear ever.

You have no idea how many time I watched that when I first saw it. I love his delicate little wave. He looks either really effeminate or super proper and named Rupert or something. Perhaps he is both. In any event is is basically the best bear.

whatever otm it's just so amazing

That bear actually made The Today Show and I saw a segment about him. It wasn't a one off thing, he lives on a farm or something somewhere and learned to wave from all the people who would wave at him. People go there now specifically to get a wave from him.

(Name Withheld to Avoid Hassle) (forksclovetofu), Saturday, 5 May 2012 18:52 (eleven years ago) link

Situation 2 - Bear has detected your presence, but is more than 100 m (350 ft) distant.

Your goal here is to act in such a way as to allow the bear to identify you, but to also let it know that you are no threat. Speak calmly so that it knows you are a human (their eyesight is quite poor). They will often quickly give ground to you once they identify you as human. If the situation permits, back away slowly, keeping a close eye on the bear. Otherwise, you may wish to detour around the bear, but in this case, detour upwind so that the bear can get your scent. Keep talking calmly. Waving your arms may help it identify you as a human.

the late great, Saturday, 5 May 2012 19:54 (eleven years ago) link

That group of four are all grizzlies! A mom and three young'uns. The big hump and the dished face are dead giveaways. You can see how much bigger the mom is than the couple of black bears that come by. The immature griz are as big as full grown blacks.

iirc lack of maternal interest was not the issue. cubs were born sick and mom was eating them (as is the way in the wild). sad for everyone, mama included, and glad this one gets modern health care a new lease on life. sometimes people do good things, even if zoos are bad.

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.

http://www.jehsmith.com/1/2015/06/rachel-dolezal-and-the-spectre-of-trans-species-identity.html

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.

the other one was a lil' baby bear i saw later in the day but i didn't take pictures of because a) i was on a bike and i didn't have my slr with me and b) the prospect of being mauled to death by a hidden mama bear while i tried to take a shitty iphone pic of her adorable progeny seemed too humiliating to risk.

His (her?) disability may be why he is hanging out in a human neighborhood, where pickings come a bit easier in the form of garbage, bird feeders, or cat food. Anyway, the bear seems both used to people and very unaggressive.

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.

literally EVERY TIME this thread shows up in New Answers my brain sings the title to some tune - dun dun DAA da-dun, "bear say HI to me" - and I try to think of what song it's from, and I always want to say it's "Life's Been Good" by Joe Walsh, and IT ISN'T.

Stupid neurons and axons all miswired in my head making me think completely useless shit all the time. Thanks, ilxobama.

my mom has had to chase a mama bear and yearling off of her porch twice in the last few weeks, first time they found the birdseed container and just busted through the screen door to eat it, second time they came back looking for more sunflower seeds. her and my stepdad are now bringing in all the bird feeders, turned all the compost over, and are hoping they move on soon.

“Anybody can become a bear ‘expert’ by reading about them and sitting through lectures at a university,” Mr. Van Tighem said. “Charlie wasn’t that kind of expert. He didn’t see bears in the way that other bear researchers might — as objects of study. He saw them as his teachers.”

But to really get at the innate nature of bears, he needed to find ones that had no history of negative encounters with people. That is what sent him and Ms. Enns to Kamchatka, which had been off limits to civilians for military reasons during the Cold War and thus was full of bears that had had no contact with humans.

His live-with-the-bears approach also drew criticism from some wildlife officials. “He’s teaching people how to get mauled,” one said.

Sometimes people were indeed mauled

Does your mom live in the north? I grew up in a NJ town that notoriously had black bears in backyards all the time.

Evan, Tuesday, 12 June 2018 18:30 (five years ago) link

There are black bears all over NJ. My mom lives in the far western part of the state, her house abuts a state park, and she sees bears in her driveway and backyard all the time.

Autopsy: Man found in Smokies died of meth overdose before being eaten by bear

After search crews found an adult black bear scavenging the body, the animal stayed in the area and exhibited aggressive behavior for hours.

Biologists trapped the bear long enough to apply a GPS tracking collar and recover human DNA from the animal. Officials then released the bear, reviewed the evidence and determined the bear should be euthanized.

"While the cause of Mr. Hill’s death is unknown at this time, after gathering initial evidence, consulting with other wildlife professionals and careful consideration, we made the difficult decision to euthanize this bear out of concern for the safety of park visitors and local residents,” Park Superintendent Cassius Cash said in a Sept. 12 news release.

Media outlets cited the release to report the bear had been euthanized, which prompted the park to clarify two days later that the animal had not yet been slain. Getting close enough to humanely shoot the bear proved surprisingly difficult, officials said.

The bear evaded death until Sept. 16, when park rangers fatally shot the animal.

The autopsy of Hill's body, performed at the Knox County Regional Forensic Center, revealed "extensive postmortem animal predation," but found no evidence he was attacked by the bear while he was alive, the autopsy report says.

According to the report, Hill initially had to be identified through his personal belongings and tattoos, which included a skull and crossbones with the inscription "AC/DC," and a Confederate battle flag bearing the words, "IT'S A REDNEK THING!"

No, but I have heard a bear cub making its sound of distress. It sounds very much like the yowling of a cat.

bear bite my butt for me
https://www.ktoo.org/2021/02/17/something-just-immediately-bit-me-in-the-butt-haines-woman-survives-outhouse-bear

what a journey:

Shannon Stevens spent the weekend with her brother and his girlfriend at a remote yurt on Chilkat Lake, 17 miles from Haines.

After traveling across the frozen lake by snowmachine on Saturday, they cooked sausages over an outdoor firepit. Later that evening, Stevens left the yurt to use the outhouse.

“Normally, when we are out there in the summer or the fall I’m used to shouting ‘Hey, bear!’ the whole way. It was the dead of winter, so I didn’t think to do that this time,” Stevens said. “I got in there and sat down on the toilet seat, and something just immediately bit me in the butt. I jumped up and screamed.”

She called for her brother Erik Stevens who came running to investigate.

“I’m like, ‘Okay, I’m going to open the lid and look.’ I take the headlamp and I grab the lid of the toilet seat and I lift it up,” Erik Stevens said. “Right at the level of the toilet seat, maybe an inch or two below, is a gigantic bear face looking right back up at me.”

He closed the lid and they ran back to the yurt as fast as they could. Shannon Stevens was bleeding, so they cleaned the wound and bandaged it up.

She said she was shocked, but not seriously injured.

“It felt like just a single puncture. Maybe it wasn’t even a bite. It might have been a swipe with his claw potentially. I don’t think we’ll ever really know that part,” Shannon Stevens said.

Black Bears Caught On Camera Breaking Into Avon Vehicle

There was a car break-in in Avon this week and it was caught on camera. It’s a good thing too, because you might not believe it without seeing it yourself.

Those breaking in, were not even human.

With its proximity to the Farmington River and heavily wooded surroundings, Anvil Drive is the type of area where black bears commonly live. So, people in that Avon neighborhood aren’t surprised when they see them, except when they break into cars.

Earlier this week, three black bears were caught on home surveillance video strolling up alongside an SUV parked in a driveway. The curious family decided to look. No keys. No problem. Two of the three little bears cleanly opened the driver and front passenger doors. Then, climbed in to explore.

The owners of the vehicle tell us the paint wasn’t even scratched and there was only minor upholstery damage.

Neighbors said they’ve seen bears in the neighborhood before and they’re becoming bolder.

“The fact that they’re opening car doors, that’s a little wild,” said next door neighbor Scott Turken.

Turken said he sees bears about once a month, including an encounter where they knocked over his trash.

“They just sat out there for about an hour and a half, just chewing whatever they could get their hands on,” he said.

Jelly donuts, sardines lure bear down from tree outside NC hospital

RALEIGH, N.C. (WRAL) – Video captures a black bear climbing down a tree to get some tasty treats.

Jelly donuts and sardines did the trick.

The bear was seen around a tree at an area hospital early Wednesday morning.

An employee at the North Carolina Wildlife Resources Commission says the bear probably showed up Monday night.

Officials say the cub, now called Rex, is around 18 months old and weighs between 70 and 80 pounds.

They are hoping he will find his own way to safer habitats.

Officials say the bear is not a threat to people but urged everyone to be cautious when in the area.

My wife saw a black bear in Florida last week! She asked the driver if that was a common sight, but he already had his camera out, which is answer enough. And there was a bear sighting in Madison, Wisconsin last week as well. Bears everywhere!

Been living in Montana six weeks, haven't seen a bear yet. I do own a can of bear spray, though, just in case.

"Not honey, but instead doughnuts, molasses and vanilla were used to entice the animal into a bear trap, according to the Rockville City Police Department."

Story from my neighborhood (relatively speaking):

Bear Injures Raft Guide Camping Along Middle Fork Flathead River

Around 6 a.m., a commercial raft company was on a guided overnight trip with two guides and three clients when a bear entered camp, the release states. The victim, an adult female guide, reported she was sleeping outside on the ground when she sustained injuries from what officials believe was a black bear.

Bear spray was deployed but the bear returned multiple times to camp, according to the release.

The victim was treated for non-life-threatening injuries at Logan Health in Whitefish.

I said to my wife that the bear probably came up and poked at her with its paw, like, "Hey, you awake?" Hope they don't kill it.

but also fuck you (unperson), Saturday, 10 June 2023 02:24 (ten months ago) link

Around 4:15 this morning I heard a couple of big banging sounds outside, enough to actually wake wide up and take a peek outside. A bear had knocked over my trash can out on the street (today is pickup day), got upset by the lack of shitty food garbage (compost all the way!), and then decided to go full Kool-Aid Bear through the gate in the fence, across my backyard, and finally Kool-Aid Bear again through the fence I share with my neighbors on the SW side. Somehow, the bear avoided knocking down the rudimentary fencing for our eventual vegetable garden for which I am thankful.

I live in Sierra Madre, which is in the same foothills as Arcadia mentioned above, and bears are constant. (a typical sighting: https://www.reddit.com/r/sierramadre/comments/14766uj/hello_fellow_neighbors_this_is_above_grandview_a/ )

In a post written from the perspective of a sun bear called Angela, Hangzhou Zoo said: "Some people think I stand like a person... It seems you don't understand me very well."

Our bears are not human. Also, they speak fluent English.

really floored to learn that there are only 8 kinds of bear. this seems far too few. I would have guessed there were upwards of 20 or even 30 kinds of bear if asked

Haven't looked it this thread for ages (am too sad about having gone to parts of Alaska, British Columbia and Yukon on holiday and not seeing a single bear - went on a trip from Ketchikan specifically to see bears, bears did not want to say hi to me), but I am dying here at mirror bear from upthread.

ailsa, Thursday, 3 August 2023 08:08 (eight months ago) link

have to admire morgan from Twitter X's, um, creativity in thinking there might be 20-30 bear species.

let's think....brown, American black, Andean (aka spectacled), polar, sloth, sun, Asian black, giant panda.

can understand people thinking it might be *slightly* more than that if they don't realise US grizzly bears are the same species as brown bears. And that Kodiak bears are a sub-species of same.

Not making it any better, Ailsa, but I saw a couple of bears in Ontario.

LAKE MARY, Fla. (WFLA) — A three-legged bear known locally as Tripod was caught on camera breaking into a home in Lake Mary, Florida over the weekend and helping itself to some snacks and adult beverages.

Faneite-Diglio told the news station that Tripod had some fish food that was left next to their fish tank and then proceeded to the bar.

“He took three White Claws, drank, and left very happy. His favorite flavor is mango and strawberry,” Faneite-Diglio told WESH.

I recently saw a picture of a bear with tapeworms. Many many tapeworms. They were at least six feet long and trailing behind her protruding right from her butt. It was horrible.

Benson and the Jets (ENBB), Wednesday, 18 October 2023 21:36 (six months ago) link

Sorry. If I saw it - you all have to at least read about it. Google at your own risk.

Why does that surburban kitchen need a camera in it?

(Well I guess they had a b&e so it makes sense to try and protect their frozen foods.)
