bear say hi to me

traffic is un bearable

why do californians bear on the parkway and park on the bearway

I bet that wasn't too far from Bearbank.

Kind of close to Eagle Rock, maybe the bear was trying to get the name changed to Bear Rock.

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.

gotta put out extra bear food so they leave the bird feed alone imo

o_O

your mom must be very brave!

i mean they're probably lil black bears, all you gotta do is yell at em

as long as you don’t look too threatening in front of the cubs when a mom is around, they’ll just be scared off

“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.

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.

Yeah? IDK I'd say a whole ton of the state not immediately bordering NY & PA aren't used to that kind of thing.

I think we need to poll all ilxors with NJ dwelling moms surrounded by bears.

this is a good video because in it a guy flings beer at a bear to keep it away from eating his bbq meat and the bbq meat of his family

git the hell away from my shrimp you foul beast *unloads IPA*

That bear is very comfortable around people.

what incredible idiots

Josh! Quit!

Does your mom live in the north?

Allendale in Bergen County. We're getting them here in the Verona/Montclair area too. The past few years they've been closing off South Mountain Reservation for a 2-day bear hunt.

Yeah that's what I figured. My parents are in West Milford where it's common. Semi-surprised they're reaching you in Montclair area! It'll really be something if they get over to us in Hoboken someday!

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!"
