a man that killed bear in the past now becomes helping the bear know their boundaries are amazing. I don't know why, after all the hard work steve does for the bears, in their hibernating season, he talks to the bears knowing where their sleeping area are and this makes me emotional. Steve shows a lot of passion and care to what he does. with a chill and relax calm voice he spread love and compassion even to the bears itself.
I would only hope that Steve gets to have a successor or someone to take his place once he gets too old to be able to work. He's such a wonderful person, it would be sad if nobody bothered to continue this type of service to the world.
24:11 the way that mother bear just jumped and reached those branches from a stand position..... WOW just beautiful... I never saw a bear jump like that.
I know everything is fair in love and war.. but watching Blondy get shot and her cube dying when Steve is helpless that was killing me and couldn’t stop my tears. God bless you Steve❤
The city of Mammoth CA. during the pandemic laid off Steve. I imagine the city has recovered from Covid-19, but I don't know if they rehired Steve back or have any intentions to do so. I would think he would be valuable to the city, safety wise, a pr guy, good publicity. Good luck Steve, and happy whispering. John
Steve is the Man. We love what he is doing and hope he never stops. The bears are depending on him to keep them safe. Great job Steve and I thank you for everything you do.
Steve Searles is the most admirable person I’ve ever known of. He’s awesome at what he does, with love and compassion for the bears. He’s not being mean to them, just trying to teach them a lesson. It’s a shame humans don’t have enough sense to follow the rules and leave them alone. They are wild animals, not Winnie the Pooh or Yogi the Bear. I admire Steve’s wife, she’s his biggest fan, the backbone of his career. Keep up the great work Steve, you’re greatly appreciated. God bless you.
I really enjoyed this video. It is heart warming to see so much time and energy invested in not harming this beautiful animal. Steve does amazing at being the Bear whisperer when ok or the loud nuisance to scare them off. Thank you Steve 💗
Steve is Bear Dad, not just the Bear Whisperer. An awesome documentary, and a very worthy cause. It is people, who have skewed the natural balance...not the bears. Up to people to attempt to fix it: and not just take the easy option to kill it.
I live in the Smokey's and bears are coming through my yard spring through fall. You don't realize how loud a bear huffs and pops there jaw until you hear it live in person lol. I have apple trees, clover and berry bushes and they snack on them. Give them space and don't feed them people food and you're good.
Wow !! Nice !! I love bears 🐻, any animals !! But,I am scared of bears ,too !! That's right ! Don't feed 'em ,or leave foods/ garbage out !! Common sense & respects & responsibility will make a huge difference !! 👍👍💜🥁🐉🎤🎶💕🐻💞
What a beautiful place. Sending my love and prayers to Steve, the bears, and this wonderfully accepting community. It's a beautiful thing. AWESOME VIDEO !!! 🧡🙏🏻
I'm no Bear Master expert, just the opposite. But I see so many things that would help keep them out of town, away from Children, and grown fools. Make a law that all trash has to be Bear proof. That's a huge preventative. Second, put steel mesh covers over large pipes. Put them on hinges so all it takes to clean them is a quick unlock, open, clean, close, lock. A few minutes once a month. That solves the bears in the pipes.
I love his relationships with his bears. What a treat to see him interacting with half nose, and one ear. I name my regulars like rhat too.i have a bee who comes to see me each day, we call fFreebee" Very cool. This is how things should be.
None of this is new. California is new. I’m a local historian in the mountains back east. Bottom line: you’re enabling problems by allowing too many bears to be bred. You need a proper long term plan.
@@dreamkitten3914 Get rid of people? We can’t go back in time. People got here too by however we choose to believe, and we need to survive as well as the most intelligent species (well, most of us anyways). All we can do is to try and keep all things in balance the best that we can. The food chain of life is not too pretty to see as well as all survival rates for all species. We just can’t get rid of all people, besides, the food chain will go on and need to survive amongst the animals and plants. The world is confusing and sad amongst all of us species , but it is what it is.💔
I love how this guy has absolutely no problem swearing, he does so very appropriately. He's like a more badass ned flanders lol. If I heard he had an apprenticeship open I'd move there in a heartbeat to learn from the guy.
I’ve watched this series like 5 times through and through and every time it’s always so nice, Steve is the man. I hope one day I can visit and respectfully enjoy the beautiful land and critters that inhabit
This guy’s grandkids must love a bedtime story. He has the most calming voice I bet they’re straight off to sleep. He should earn extra money doing voice overs.😂 I find people who hunt for fun, disgusting I’m so glad he left that life behind and turned it into something good. Well done to him.
I really miss seeing new episodes of Steve's bear spanking! I was so unhappy when he lost his job due to the pandemic and hope that he is working again with the bears. I live in bear country and have had many amazing visitations at my house. I have some very good "bear dogs" (border collies!) who keep them from revisiting my home. No problems for many years now. Please give us more news and new episodes. I rewatch the old ones many times over!
Border collies are the smartest !! I love those dogs !!! So super cute ,too !! I really hope you guys won't have any bear visitors !! Lol. 😅 I ,too.hope Steve got his job back now !! We really need men like him out there ! It's always money !! I wished if they could do fund like go find me & set up the fund for injured bears & very compassionate vets will treat them !! It broke my heart to see that bear shot down !! 💜🥁🐉🎤🎶🐻💕💞
Bears are just being them ,they do what bears do !! Don't punish animals for being animals !! We all need to learn how to share this beautiful planet together !!! Thanks to Steve !! He is a very good example for that !! 👍👍👍💜🥁🐉🎤🎶💞
well at least he lasted over thirteen years..and he did do a lot for them..He should have not brought his woman there though, cause they have their time of month, I'm sure it's what triggered the one nasty Bear..
@@Ace-ke7fq He was dangerously close, stayed later than usual until Oktober when bears are DESPERATE. He was an old bear who couldn't compete for food with others so he took a snack.
You don't realize how loud a bear huffs and pops there jaw until you hear it live in person lol. I have apple trees, clover and berry bushes and they snack on them.
I love the way this was set up as a triple episode. I've watched it 3 times over the course of a few months. I wish I could find the entire series and watch every season. I absolutely love this series and the respect Steve has for nature and of course, the bears!
What a great program! I would love to see thousands of wildlife managers like Steve around the world as the interactions between humans and bears increase as more and more people move into bear territories. People in these communities and also the tourists will hopefully be taught on a large scale basis to not feed the bears or see them as teddy bears because it's so dangerous... mainly for the bears, in so many ways. Keep up the great work, Steve. Bless you!
Thank you!!! It makes my heart glow to know you are out there. "Talking to animals" entails learning their social order, their "speech" and body language. Trust me it's easier than learning French. I'm familiar with horses, chickens, dogs, cats, and goats. I pick up the body language and speech; and learn their view of social order, and it's easy to interact with them after that. MUCH easier than dealing with humans. Glad the bears have you as a teacher/advocate. I can only hope there are people out there who bond with each of the other animals. I've known deer talkers as well. Blessed be; all of you who keep us in balance.
Steve is one of the smartest men I have ever seen when it comes to dealing with bears. I totally give him thumbs up.👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼 you are a very smart man Steve, I give you 100% credit you know how to deal with bears like I say, you’re the smartest man I’ve ever seen when it comes to dealing with bears.😁👍🏼😁
What is stopping Lake Mammoth of setting up a program where every 2 or 3 houses there’s someone who is trained and equipped to deliver less than lethal rounds to these bears? Why doesn’t Steve shoot them right off the bat with less than lethal? It seems like he’s found his balance, keeping them away sorta but still being light handed with them so they can come back and invade because any chance he can be around a bear is good for Steve, but not necessarily good for the bear? It seems like these bears should be immediately shot with beanbags and pepper sprayed, and stay on them like that until they really change their alll and also teach their cubs better habits. Chasing them around and yelling “you bad bear!” Most of the time is probably a game. Bears need to associate houses with being stinging pain(bean bags, stun grenades, pepper spray)….
These procedures are really effective we did this up in Montana and it's been used all over the world. We may like sitting outside with a bear kicking back feet away from them but it's not doing the beat anygood. The big thing is you never pin them in an area. And best to stay as far away as you can when they wakeup after a long winter hibernating. My grandmother fell and weged herself between two fallen trees because she had a body cast that covered her torso after her spine was fused from top to bottom. They were picking huckleberry. She kept saying youhoo calling grandad as the bear was catchingat her pants then it hit what it wanted the huckleberrys. Well it turned and ran towards grandad but he fired a shot but didn't scare it and he was forced to shoot and kill it. They were so sad that happened. They encountered many bear. In Yellowstone national park there's a one room cabin that they claim at the park is like 200 years old but my grandad built it and have the picks to prove it. My mother was born in that cabin. So if you ever go to Yellowstone and they say it's an old trappers cabin tell them their full of it! It was built in 1929.
Hats off to Steve !! We all appreciate what he does !! I wish if we've got many men like him in this world 🌎, wouldn't be such a great thing !!?? 👍👍💜🥁🐉🎤🎶💕🐻💞
IMPO it is Because Steve took the time and research on all those bears to keep people safe . May his work and research always be part of that community so he can Pass on the knowledge to others to do the same . WIth that said may everyone be safe and the bears live .I couldn't stop watching this video was so amazing watching steve do his work.
It’s really sad. Lil’ Bear, Blondie & Ugly Bear are just hungry. All their natural food is apparently unavailable for many reasons. I know Steve feels horrible when he has to whoop them. Even more if he has to put them down! Bless Nature🌺
🇨🇦 Steve is absolutely wonderful with the bears. He certainly isn't out to hurt them in anyway,shape, or form. On the other hand Nor would he let someone be hurt or mauled. His job does frighten me however! These are huge wild anímals he's dealing with that can turn and kill him in an instant! 🙏 I p ray for his safety every video I watch. I also want to thank him with all my heart For keeping the towns people safe. Great job Steve,! God bless 🙏 From Ontario Canada.
l love how you have spent time with the bears and guided them back to their natural home so they don't get destroyed, and how you put the bear that was injured down and sang for him and smudged him sending him on his way to the spirit realm 👍
🇨🇦🐻 Hello Steve! Just want to say Thank you soooo much for the fantastic job your doing with the bears. Also Steve, Thank you so much for protecting them when your able to! I love following your videos, and watch them from beginning to end. A 2 yrs old child wouldn't know or understanding any better, but seriously! 🤬 For adults to know that they're in bear country and leave food and garbage laying around is just asking for trouble. It puts the bears and yourself in danger. There's no way i could do your job! 😵 I'm terrified of them! Please be safe and i pray that people that go to your town get your message loud and clear to pick up and dispose of their garbage properly or those beautiful animals could be shot and killed. It's not fair to the bears or the people like yourself that are permanent residents! It's really quite simple! When visiting bear country, have some respect and pick up your garbage and food scraps!
Hello beautiful Canada !! 🇨🇦 You're so right !! Responsibilities & good common sense & respects & compassion are our tools !! To coexist with wild animals on this beautiful blue planet Earth 🌏 👍👍👍💜🥁🐉🎤🎶💕🐻💞
Steve, You are absolutely the best at what you do and may God bless and keep you. Hope there is a way for you to be able to keep your job. The bears need you to be there for them. God bless you Steve!!!!
Steve your a special guy. Bless ya. Another example of our worlds colliding. Not sure what gives us the right to end their life for taking food. Understand if they show aggression and attack and sure people will say that's the next step of you let them get away with it, eventually will be confronted in the home, in the fridge and would end badly. It's just a damn shame, they just want to eat and survive, they smell food they respond 😢
I worry about the bears getting easy meals at campsites- it’s not easy to bearproof food- they should have locking canisters tethered to posts- they are gorging themselves on campers food- beggar bears- it’s unnatural
Steve should go to the schools to educate children about the bears. Teach them how the best way to dispose trash & how they should leave sleeping bears alone for their safety & the bear's safety. Explain how if bears aren't left alone there's a chance they could be killed, the worst thing for bears is to get not be afraid of humans. If he has access to a cub being raised by humans, that would be good for kids to fall in love & understand they want to do the best for all bears. 🐻😻😻🐻😷
I do have empathy for large animals that need a lot of food everyday to stay fit. It can’t be easy looking for your food. Bears are cool but there’s a lot of them to worry about. They’re definitely not an endangered species.
Black bears & grizzly were once endangered species !! Not til long ago !! Black bears endangered status came off in 2016 ! Both are still threatened species !! 💜🥁🐉🎤🎶💞
Did Mamouth ever hire back Steve Searles the bear whisperer? Surely nowadays the town has recovered fully from Covid-19 ? Unless that was just an excuse.
Thank you for what you do but I think what burns me alive is like the cop said they were here first and if they behave like a wild animal does and with bears that is forage for food to store up for winter.
food. I sincerely hope that something can be done. I'd be devastated to think that in this day and age that the only way to deal with these bears would be to put them to sleep. Is there a way to tranquilize them and relocate them? This man and group of people are doing an amazing job caring for them. God bless you all. 🐻
the way to deal with them is to have people not affraid of them or their habits helping them in and out of our intrusion on their habitats...ive had to tell trigger happy d.e.c. officers, " sorry bears already gone back to the swamp, i led them across the street 20 minutes ago..." it saddens me theres so many trigger happy rangers out there, but its a triumph to me knowing i had a mother bear and her three cubs 20' behind me following me camly out of town and back to safety after being cornered in town all day by the panic stricken cops and game officers...
I've been watching this on my TV and I love you and what your doing. I thank you from my heart but I can't finish this cuz I'm sure the f-ing cops kill Ace. This angers me cuz I feell the bears need protected from the humans NOT the other way around. Humans are taking their space cuz they feel intitled. This descusts me!
This BEAR whisperer should have his own 60 minutes segment so that more people know how BEARs should be treated vs. just killing them over fear of injury…Has @60minutes called you yet?
people building houses right in the middle of the bears property. And then they are 'scared' and the bears have to bugger off - people doing idiotic people stuff again - why do they have to live in the middle of the forest... I'm human as well and understand people live so they should just concentrate into cities and build up as high as possible to house them all and leave nature alone
Toquotesteveadeadbearisntlearninganything,alivebear can be taught this video was excellent,and probably should bemandatoryfor anyoneconsidering living aroundbears😊thank yousteve for the wonderful workyouaccomplishedalongwiththeothercaringprofessionalsyou worked within filming this awsomework😊
1:14:00 That bear looks terrified...the humans could just go home and leave it tf alone, that is the bear's home, why should he be called an invader?....
PSA if a bear is still up in early winter. There is a good chance they are waiting for one last large meal before hibernating. Stay far away for your own safety regardless of how familiar you are with that bear/bears
People need to control access to food for these bears that includes dumpsters and bird feeders...educate the people write citations for violators..regarding food security

🇨🇦 Steve is absolutely wonderful with the bears. He certainly isn't out to hurt them in anyway,shape, or form. On the other hand
Nor would he let someone be hurt or mauled. His job does frighten me however! These are huge wild anímals he's dealing with that can turn and kill him in an instant! 🙏 I p ray for his safety every video I watch. I also want to thank him with all my heart
For keeping the towns people safe. Great job Steve,! God bless 🙏

Steve is the man
l love how you have spent time with the bears and guided them back to their natural home so they don't get destroyed, and how you put the bear that was injured down and sang for him and smudged him sending him on his way to the spirit realm 👍
🇨🇦🐻 Hello Steve! Just want to say Thank you soooo much for the fantastic job your doing with the bears. Also Steve, Thank you so much for protecting them when your able to! I love following your videos, and watch them from beginning to end. A 2 yrs old child wouldn't know or understanding any better, but seriously! 🤬 For adults to know that they're in bear country and leave food and garbage laying around is just asking for trouble. It puts the bears and yourself in danger. There's no way i could do your job! 😵 I'm terrified of them! Please be safe and i pray that people that go to your town get your message loud and clear to pick up and dispose of their garbage properly or those beautiful animals could be shot and killed. It's not fair to the bears or the people like yourself that are permanent residents! It's really quite simple! When visiting bear country, have some respect and pick up your garbage and food scraps!
I agree- the bears are well known to be there- humans sloppy with food.
Hello beautiful Canada !! 🇨🇦 You're so right !! Responsibilities & good common sense & respects & compassion are our tools !! To coexist with wild animals on this beautiful blue planet Earth 🌏 👍👍👍💜🥁🐉🎤🎶💕🐻💞
Unfortunately, the city of Mammoth CA. laid off Steve when Covid-19 started permanently. Some bean counters have no feelings at all.
Steve,
You are absolutely the best at what you do and may God bless and keep you. Hope there is a way for you to be able to keep your job. The bears need you to be there for them. God bless you Steve!!!!
Steve thank you for always protecting us in mammoth and for keeping Ace out of trouble 😂😂😂
Blondie just wanted some real food 😞 rip blondie
So wholesome 😢
You are just the best Steve
Steve your a special guy. Bless ya. Another example of our worlds colliding. Not sure what gives us the right to end their life for taking food. Understand if they show aggression and attack and sure people will say that's the next step of you let them get away with it, eventually will be confronted in the home, in the fridge and would end badly. It's just a damn shame, they just want to eat and survive, they smell food they respond 😢
Steve needs his show back. He has so much to teach
Maybe some electricity from a cyclops fencer would fix those stubborn bears thought processes, wouldn't take but one good zap to gain there respect.
I want to move there. Looks beautiful.
Me,too ! But,I wouldn't ! As much as I love bears ,I am super scared of them, too !! Lol. 👍💜🥁🐉🎤🎶💕🐻💞
This guy is great
I worry about the bears getting easy meals at campsites- it’s not easy to bearproof food- they should have locking canisters tethered to posts- they are gorging themselves on campers food- beggar bears- it’s unnatural
Oh my goodness gracious !!!
I am in tears.
fantastic documentary thanks for this! This man needs to pass on his knowledge because it will be a tremendous tragic loss when he retires...
Steve should go to the schools to educate children about the bears. Teach them how the best way to dispose trash & how they should leave sleeping bears alone for their safety & the bear's safety. Explain how if bears aren't left alone there's a chance they could be killed, the worst thing for bears is to get not be afraid of humans.
If he has access to a cub being raised by humans, that would be good for kids to fall in love & understand they want to do the best for all bears. 🐻😻😻🐻😷
This man told a bear “Shame on you!” Talk about your power moves!
I wish I was Steve he has the best job and he does a great job props to Steve
as scared as I am of bears, why can’t they tranq the bear and relocate him far into the woods near a stream.
Because they come where easy food is. NEAR PEOPLE.
The look in the bears eyes is definitely different wen they see steve..😮❤❤
I do have empathy for large animals that need a lot of food everyday to stay fit.
It can’t be easy looking for your food.
Bears are cool but there’s a lot of them to worry about. They’re definitely not an endangered species.
Black bears & grizzly were once endangered species !! Not til long ago !! Black bears endangered status came off in 2016 ! Both are still threatened species !! 💜🥁🐉🎤🎶💞
The feeling he gets to sit with those bears it's got to be ha real treat
This video is filled with hilarious quotes
Did Mamouth ever hire back Steve Searles the bear whisperer?
Surely nowadays the town has recovered fully from Covid-19 ? Unless that was just an excuse.
Loved this so much...ace is such a cutie but so naughty 🥰🥰🥰🥰
Steve is a legend ☺️
IF PEOPLE WOULD STOP FEEDING THE DAMN BEARS...but that won't happen and Bears WILL get killed !
Thank you for what you do but I think what burns me alive is like the cop said they were here first and if they behave like a wild animal does and with bears that is forage for food to store up for winter.
i think there are a few other places that need a full time bear/ wolf/ cougar guy as well. and the bears might not be so tame. Might need 2 guys.
food. I sincerely hope that something can be done. I'd be devastated to think that in this day and age that the only way to deal with these bears would be to put them to sleep. Is there a way to tranquilize them and relocate them? This man and group of people are doing an amazing job caring for them. God bless you all. 🐻
the way to deal with them is to have people not affraid of them or their habits helping them in and out of our intrusion on their habitats...ive had to tell trigger happy d.e.c. officers, " sorry bears already gone back to the swamp, i led them across the street 20 minutes ago..." it saddens me theres so many trigger happy rangers out there, but its a triumph to me knowing i had a mother bear and her three cubs 20' behind me following me camly out of town and back to safety after being cornered in town all day by the panic stricken cops and game officers...
I've been watching this on my TV and I love you and what your doing. I thank you from my heart but I can't finish this cuz I'm sure the f-ing cops kill Ace. This angers me cuz I feell the bears need protected from the humans NOT the other way around. Humans are taking their space cuz they feel intitled. This descusts me!
This BEAR whisperer should have his own 60 minutes segment so that more people know how BEARs should be treated vs. just killing them over fear of injury…Has @60minutes called you yet?
was great, very relaxing show I watched it before bed.
people building houses right in the middle of the bears property. And then they are 'scared' and the bears have to bugger off - people doing idiotic people stuff again - why do they have to live in the middle of the forest... I'm human as well and understand people live so they should just concentrate into cities and build up as high as possible to house them all and leave nature alone
When the bears keep stealing your porridge
😂 😂 😂
please be far and the most careful when u do this😭 i’ve been watching too much final affliction on youtube
Toquotesteveadeadbearisntlearninganything,alivebear can be taught this video was excellent,and probably should bemandatoryfor anyoneconsidering living aroundbears😊thank yousteve for the wonderful workyouaccomplishedalongwiththeothercaringprofessionalsyou worked within filming this awsomework😊
1:14:00 That bear looks terrified...the humans could just go home and leave it tf alone, that is the bear's home, why should he be called an invader?....
It’s too bad there’s not something set up to help the bears recover. A bear hospital paid for by Patreon or something😭
Steve's going to be another Timothy Treadwell it's a matter of time .
PSA if a bear is still up in early winter. There is a good chance they are waiting for one last large meal before hibernating. Stay far away for your own safety regardless of how familiar you are with that bear/bears
People need to control access to food for these bears that includes dumpsters and bird feeders...educate the people write citations for violators..regarding food security
Aren’t there cougars in CA? Maybe it’s just the way the show is filmed, but these bears seem like they are taking over the town🤣🤣🤷♂️
