Dumbasses from the city don't understand nature. Bears can attack. Mama bears will attack if you go near cubs. It's what they do. That's as dumb as feeding bears.

Them bears is sneaky. They sit there looking all forlorn so a tourist will get out of their car. Then they steal the car. It’s known as Bearjacking. They especially like Mustangs.

Then they go to McDonalds and order 300 milkshakes and one Apple pie.

Bunch of delinquent bears.

The Grizzlies steal Mercedes.

A bear stole our lunch when we went to Yellowstone back when I was a kid. Some lady walked by our picnic table and just said ‘watch your food’. Next thing we knew there was this big old bear lumbering toward our table. Needless to say we got out of there quick, minus our lunch. Got it all on color film too. I think the footage is still around somewhere.

We are going to be in Yellowstone this summer. I have been there several times but my wife never has. I keep explaining to her about the park wildlife, the bearjams on the park roads and the brain dead tourists who attempt to treat them like pets. She’s in for a real show.

“Dumbasses from the city”! LOL!!! The Bears are up here and if you are out and about you had better be keeping the old ears tuned and frequent 360 degree ‘look arounds’. For as big, and ‘lumbering’ looking, as some of them can get, they can actually move about and stalk quietly. They are incredible Animals!

But, but, those cubs are just so darn cute!

The wife and I were walking a trail at Lake Moomaw, and about 30 feet in front of us, a cub rolled across the trail. I told my wife to wait, and sure enough, momma bear goes across the trail. While we were waiting, a young couple (you know the type-kerchiefs tied as sweat bands and all the other REI matched clothing) with an unleashed black lab mix came up from the other direction. I yelled at them to leash their dog, and they just looked at me like I was trying to impose my old, white values on them.
That’s when the momma bear crossed the trail, and their dog took off after the bear. The young woman suddenly realized the possibilities and whined at me for advice. I just told her it was a good idea to leash her dog in bear country. Then I looked at her and said if she was lucky, she’ll be able to locate her dog by the yelps and whimpers.
Then Mrs. VanShuyten and I left.

All I know is that I'm getting tired of my GPS telling me "Bear Right" and I never see the bear. I guess it is far more accurate telling me when the "Bear Left".

It’s pretty clear from the video that momma is only warning the turons. Not one of them could hope to outrun her if she were to actually attack. I’ve spent years with bears. Fortunately for them, she was just creating space. Bears can catch a horse in a short run if they are so motivated.

“Mama bears will attack if you go near cubs. It’s what they do. “

Wild mama anythings will protect their young. Deer will kick the $hit out of anyone threatening their young.

Years ago after WWII I had summer jobs at Crater Lake Oregon. I was the handy guy for the electricians crew. When out in the woods hanging fallen lines we often had to work in proximity to bears. One thing we never did was to give the mama bear any indication we would interfere with her scrubbing logs for insects. I/we never had to run for our lives. On another page we often saw vehicles lined along the road leading to he rim with people taking close up pictures of the bears which were wanting goodies. I remember days when I actually saw people push bears on their noses just to get a close up photo. In my memory is a case where a man camped on the rim campground with family who wanted to shoo a mama bear and cubs away from his picnic table one night. the guy scared the mama bear and cubs away but foolishly wanted a further distance. Mama bear was waiting for him and gave him a big slash across and through his WWII leather flight jacket. There was a hasty emergency to the hospital.
