- While on set with Tanner Saunders filming a scene for the feature film Lost Wilderness, I got some video on my GoPro of Billy the grizzly bear. He is a 3 year old professionally trained grizzly bear.
You can find more info on Billy by going to his You Tube channel.
Tanner Saunders has some stills of him and the bear on his Facebook page and feel free to tweet Tanner on Twitter @TannerSaunders and ask him what it was like filming with such and amazing animal like billy. - ภาพยนตร์และแอนิเมชัน
ALL it takes is for The bear to be in a BAD MOOD for his WILD instincts to kick in. 🐻😨🏃
u r stupid
A beast is a beast...They have bad days too like humans....Only question to ponder is when is that bad day??? Respect the animal kingdom.🐻🐻🐻
Jiffy Jim There is no respect here... it's ridiculas.
No matter how tame he is. Its still a wild animal and can be unpredictable. Just don't know when he might want to play a little rough and hurt someone.
u are stupid
Parents that allow scenes like this between their children and wild animals "trained or not" must be desperate for money, fame or something. The kid looked "thrilled," (not!) Jody Foster's mother did the same thing - with a very young Jody and a male lion - and she was mauled.
There’s a reason they’re known as wild animals!
All it takes is 6 or 7 seconds of a temper tantrum, or just a bad moment, but you do see the electrical fence, the hot wire, that's why he doesn't approach the crew, he's felt that shock before.
Patricktomlinson Tomlinson - if that bear really wanted to go, that electric wire is NOT going to stop it. Even if it has experienced the “shock”. Even regular old black bears will tear through barb-wire fencing, regular fencing, page-wire fencing, going full speed in a fit of fear or fury or ??? - with the fencing hanging of it while it charges through the neighbourhood! ! ! You think that grizzly would notice the momentary shock of an electric wire - even when “trained” to the shock it can deliver? I’m not so sure. So, to those people behind the “apparent” safety of the electric fence - - - have your bear spray IN HAND and pray to your God for protection. That bear IS a wild animal and is like a gun with a hair trigger. Not to be taken lightly!
There's no way I will give this a thumbs-up! You cannot trust a bear-you cannot tame a bear-bear may be good for awhile and you will never know when "awhile is up for the bear!" You are risking lives here! Why take a chance with yr life-it is SO PRECIOUS !
Some bears aren't allowed back in the wilderness.. they would die.. In some cases, this is better for the bear and allows the bear some freedom, rather then a Zoo. Although the bear could potentially kill someone, as they have in the past, it's a risk many trained people take to get to know and learn the animal better. And Rhonda... TAKE A CHANCE with your life, it's a good way to live..
Have a great day!
Almost hate to say this but...... I would trust a full grown bear over man any day
RHONDA CHANDL
Gina Backes man and woman..
Jeez Its treating that Bear like a Circus act
My son Tanner loves bears
Im just reminded of how quick a tame bear can react...everytime I see the video of the bear that was in the Will Ferrell movie rip his trainers throat out.
you guys are crazy!!!
"there is an electric fence between the bear and the crew" BAHAHAHA! So what.. Stupid ppl doing even stupider things = dead people.
bear belongs in the wild are a sanctuary, computerized bear can be put in the movie
I would love for this bear to invite tRUMP over for dinner.....
crazy
i am dying to interact with a baby bear!! i think you guys are blessed to be able to care for these amazing animals
This bear was not ours, he is a rescue bear and since not able to be put back into the wild. He was trained for movies which he is in a lot. He still has wild instincts and had to be very careful and extremely quiet while filming this for this movie. Awesome animal though!
LOCORiderair what movie was this?
risky business I think . Not for me.
Had a black bear cub , the sow was hit by a logging truck, stayed with us two years before he wandered off into the woods, still shows up every now an then for his favorite, peanut butter cookies, it’s life here in the woods
My fury character is a honey bear 🐻.
Roar .!!
...he has the right to keep and bear arms
what kind of dog is this
is this the cat in the hat?
I am pretty sure that some of the crew carry bear maze and maybe even a 12 gauge somewhere at the ready....
2233golf2 hahaha! no, they're all filming from different angles
so as not to miss a short film opportunity.
Lets hope so
nice
Now Bear...don't play so rough with Tanner, spit him out!
I'm surprised that bear be nice to human, bear didn't attack him yet
Does anyone else have a restriction on subscribing to these videos? I've got a message saying I am subscribed to too many!!!!!
that is a bear.
you are a fool.
Bears are not dogs- in fact they are rather closely related to pigs if I'm not mistaken.
grumpy, hungry, lazy but quick with the mood swings.
Animals are victims of human perception.
A tendency to 'see' animals in a way that makes it more convenient to human behavior- in this case, a film of some sort, very lucrative for the bear wrangler.
but that there is probably a young bear.
when he begins to behave as a normal, mature bear he'll be the one that ends up shot.
They are most closely related to seals and dogs
Not pigs
As long as the stomach of the beast is full, it's ok, however, when it's starved, it's a different scenario...
Well, you're right, but also wrong. You're right that you don't want the animal to be "starved". In any case, starving the animal would just be cruel. But when working with the bear, or many other animals, you want them to be a little hungry. That way they respond to the trainers commands in order to get the treat. But when their stomach is full, they don't care about the treats and are more likely to rebel, or at least not pay attention. No, I'm not a wild animal trainer, but have trained a number of domestic animals and have done a lot of reading on the subject.
Dalmacio Wahayna...you are completely wrong. A beast can attack for many reasons. Illness that is undetected, the natural aging process and chemical changes within the body, the internal drive to mate and not being able to satisfy this primitive desire can bring on sudden changes and agitation, and discomfort or stress of any kind, no matter how seemingly innocent to the human eye. It can be an issue for the animal.
I agree with you all. This is a mistake and the parents of that kid should be ashamed of themselves. I saw that tape of the cousin of the trainer killed in 2 seconds, poor guy didn't stand a chance. Roy Horn too. these animals don't slice your juggle with a lucky shot. They are apex predators . Top of the food chain. We seem to forget that.
This man wrestling the bear is silly just imagine if the bear stuck his claws in or grabbed the back of his head Tarzan is a fictional character people.
you think that pissy electic fence will stop that mongrel?? what happens if he goes apeshit, runs off and mauls a few dozen people. ?? i predict trainer will be the main entree one fine day
Several of the comments on this video are right on. It is incredibly stupid to film this and make it available to the public. Any bear, no matter how trained, can turn on a human and mauler kill that person. Videos like this encourage naive people to think that bears are not dangerous. ANY bear is possibly dangerous and should be treated with caution, at least. After six black bear close encounters at my mountain cabin in Montana and two with grizzlies in remote areas of Montana I know a little about this.
A very wise statement
@@corinneyaworski5274 Thanks😁
It would be nice if bears could be capable of intelligent speech like Yogi. :)
This just aint right somehow.
will you leave it alone the poor animal cant even enjoy some free time out away from your over the top controlling, typical Humans.. control ..control ..control..me me me look at me sad so sad. and its a wild free animal ..well it should be , your risking life to others this animal could turn any time we have seen it happen before with bears that stupid dumb-ass humans that thought they had trained.. its wild as it should be leave it alone .
I care about all animals as God's creation. Something really bothers me about seeing this.
Craig Mouldey It bothers you because it's ludicrous. That trainer ONLY has "control" as long as the bear decides not to rebel or get nuts. He's a wild animal.. nothing about this is noble, respectful or right!
i care about animals too, dunno what your idea of god has to do with it.
u r stupid, with love the star
@@surfinmuso37 do you really think animals just said poof and came into existence…. Someone or something had to create it….
@@JYgaming-yl2yt Thought has created God and then thought worships the image which thought has created.
Stop worshipping your imagination/ silly beliefs.
Belief has no place, where truth is concerned.
Athiests are certainly closer to the truth than the deluded religious
WOW!! HOW BEAUTIFUL IS THIS MAJESTIC ANIMAL!! SO POWERFUL & DEADLY, BUT, YET, SO GENTLE. MIND U . . . . . . *BILLY-BOY* IS GETTING FAT, FROM ALL THE FOODS, SNACKS, & TREATS, HE'S GETTING *EVERY SINGLE DAY* WHICH IN THE LONG-RUN, IS NOT GOOD FOR HIM!! AM I RIGHT?
You can't work with hungry bears.
You're not right. Bears are natural gluttons and gorge themselves every fall in preparation for hibernation. Their subcutaneous fat layer is typically several inches thick because, in the wild, they feed almost all day long as fall progresses. Then they fast for months during hibernation and quickly lose most of their fat layer.
I saw a video on TH-cam a so called tame bear killed the owners brother right in front of the bears owner
ther tger attacked roy horn. circus performer...
Just watching this stupidity on the part of "the large and in charge" trainer and the tray of hot and ready to eat hors 'doeuvres left me terrified. Common sense has left and building. An electric fence are you kidding me.😨
Doesn't matter how well cared for or how professionally trained-- it's still a wild animal that can revert to totally wild instantly with no provocation & no warning.This is foolish & stupid
Hope nothing happens to anybody so this poor beautiful animal has to be put down.
Too much giggling by the camera.
Wonder how much $ it takes to insure a bear trainer. Can't be enough. I'll pass....
Just the fact that the words "trained" and "grizzly bear" are used in conjunction tells a very sad story. I'm sure Billy is very loved but, it doesn't make it right that he is living in an unnatural way.
You don't necessarily know the history of the bear and how and when it ended up in captivity. This may be the "living it's best life" possible considering it's history.
I don't see why people are upset about this video nothing went wrong. Looks like everyone had a good time including billy so idk what the problem is.
James Thompson because it's foolish and stupid?I dunno that could be why? Just a guess..
Because this is a wild animal…. That can turn in a second and KIDS were put in danger!!! It’s not okay and nothing went wrong luckily…. This time. Have you watched other videos where the animal snaps and kills or injures someone???
Not a fan of exposing people to this, someone might be in the woods, unexpected.
When is something going to be done to stop this ignorance ?
Completely agree
Sir Tristen You are as pie-in-the-sky as Percy Dovetonsils.
...play stupid games win stupid prizes.
Just like dogs
What foolish people. Must not love their child.
Bear Trainer? for what? for god sake leave them alone
NO FEAR
WILL BAKE No brains; no respect.
Pathetic, yeah play dead Bruno, smile Bruno... leave it alone, why train a bear for these silly shows
