Friendly reminder that that's only true because (like with lynx and wolves and wolverines), deforestation and overhunting drove them to extinction there. New findings suggest that the UK may have had bears as recently as around the 11th century. For comparison, wolves went extinct in the 17th century in the UK. There are currently efforts being made to restore some of these species, which is amazing. ❤
@@amemooress6291 We are a very densely populated country and already escaped wild boar are coming into contact with people and it isn't good when they do. That said, people coming into contact with cows also increasingly has resulted in more and more deaths - cows are our most dangerous animal at present.
You can live in the US just don’t go on trails bi never do. Local city parks with lakes will suffice. Worst case is you get attacked by an angry goose but never happens
And if the bear act bearish in his habitat, they’re ready to kill them! Too many people are bad stewards over wild life!! And talking to it, like it knows left from right!🙁
I’m sure it’s been said, but bears love the easy walking trails as much as humans. It gets them from one place to another with ease, and there maybe opportunities for foraging on the way.
In Alaska, this time of year, the snow is so deep, the moose walk the railroad tracks. Of course, trains kill them. There’s a special train that goes around gathering them and the food goes to old folks homes. Lots of meat
Not all predators will react but all predators on this earth can sense when something is afraid. That is down to insects all the way up to mammals. Humans can sense it too…unless you can fake it like these people do. They are scared shitless but they cant show that Or that bear gets alot more curious which lead to higher interest in you which eventually leads you to running and thats when you get your skull bitten. No matter what…remain calm and back up while calling attention to yourself. These ppl did the right thing other than (i assume) not having a firearm.
Once in a lifetime experience etc., but in that moment I'd be thinking, "I could be at home watching TV, instead I CHOSE to go for a walk in a forest full of bears!"
In Alaska it happens all the time. I lived in glacier bay one summer and encountered grizzly bears daily, several times a day. They came into the lodge to grab M&Ms from the little store. Tourists feed them, unfortunately.
@@alfjones6377it’s a Grizzley pal. They are apex predators and will eat anything and everything….including their own species. So yes, you will be killed.
yeah i fear bear most. Not cause they can kill you but cause they will eat you alive. I cant imagine the pain and horror and you can do nothing about it.
Yup. It's entry level stressed. Next it will pop it's teeth or bluff charge. These folks handled it well, and were probably ready with Counter Assault. Dan
@@ayasha89games66 Good job trying to be funny, that's a sign a bear is annoyed and ready to throw down. Watching the discovery channel pays off sometimes lol
The bear was not exhibiting any threatening behaviours. It was content to continue foraging, which was its focus. Being able to read subtle cues from animals in the wild is key. Those hikers did all the right things.
@@GmonkeyJ777 For sure. He is a happy, foraging bear, not the least disturbed by the hikers. He knows his place as king of the forest and feels no threat. Under those circumstances bears will mostly ignore you. They might bluff charge if you approach them or get too close, but if you back off and stay calm, their first choice is to continuing grazing.
@@BrianWaller-qe7gr Aberrant behaviour can be exhibited by any living thing. In my experience humans are far less predictable and more dangerous than wildlife. I'm not sure what you mean by "false move." Like charging the bear? Maybe screaming at it or throwing things at it? Whatever idiot would behave that way shouldn't expect to survive in the wild. Even still, most bears will walk away, bluff charge or swat an annoying human away, depending on the circumstances.. They live in a natural environment that supports their needs, and they understand their supremacy. Violence for no purpose isn't in their DNA.
That is a young bear. Its head is big in comparison to the body. If it was fully mature and fully developed the head would appear slightly smaller. When I was a child I saw some absolutely massive grizzlies in Denali park with my parents that had pin heads in comparison to their bodies.
Did exactly what you should do. Don't run, talk in a calm voice. They probably had spray or firearms ready but even if they charge, brown bears usually bluff.
@@SC68170if the bear is minding his own business don't provoke him... it's just common sense. If it looks like he wants something to do with you then scare him away. In case you're camping, shaking tarps works well to scare them away.
Awesome! I hope to make it back to the Brook's Falls area myself again one day. The bears are so gorged on & focused on eating salmon during the summer, the humans around are just those odd 2-legged animals always walking slowly backwards.
I hope those are the thoughts which go through your mind moments before one attacks you and successfully cripples one of your stupid safety entitled hippy friends in front of you as you lay there helpless and bleeding.
All Wildlife should be treated with caution. We always need to remember that we are in their home. Glad to see experienced hikers who are careful and behave appropriately .
Have you ever watched a Bear hunt? Their stamina is amazing. TH-cam Bear chasing deer or Elk. You're not out-running a bear or out climbing them under almost any circumstances.
TikTok is not real life. You have as much chances of being attacked by a bear as of winning the lottery. Attacks are very rare. Also if a bear comes too close something as simple as shaking tarps or using bear spray will make them go away. Look up the number of people killed by bears and the number of people killed by dogs each year in the US. If you are not scared of dogs then don't be scared of bears.
The guy says go left and the bear is like I don’t care which way you go left or right. you’re lucky the bear didn’t eat you as a snack before heading out!
I am still thinking about the TRUE level of confidence of the two hikers at that moment, and what hope they have had in their strategy at that very minute.
These bears are a lot more friendly than normal grizzlies, in katmai natl park bears are a lot less aggressive because they are used to human encounters
I once saw a video of a bear literally tearing the face off from a guy that he catches in the forest. I will never, ever set foot anywhere nearby a place where there are apex predators on the prowl lol
Because its beautiful beyond words. Just always, ALWAYS be aware of your surroundings and prepared (firearm,bear spray, mosquito repellent) for encounters with bear, moose, Sasquatch, mosquitos and the occasional transient human.
Yeah but youre supposed to keep constant talking, loudly, and eye contacr and always face the Bear Brown Bears need to know youre not native prey Turn your back or run YOURE DEAD
From listening to a lot of seasoned hikers and Rangers, once you encounter a grizzly, you should not continue hiking because they could circle around and return! They advise you keep your spray / weapon in hand and and quickly as possible retreat out of the area.
There's no fckn way these two goofballs are yelling, "get off our trail," "go to the left," like the bear isn't gonna turn away from two big hunks of protein, it's a bear.
Man imagine being there that’d be so scary. Because of how unpredictable they are the the damage they’re capable of dealing. Can’t outrun it can’t out climb it.
I spent a summer working in Alaska, and literally had bears going right underneath my feet looking for food while I was a conductor riding on a freight train shoving into Whittier. These people and their, “Hello bear,” are hysterical. Everybody in Alaska is warned if you’re gonna go anywhere into the woods you have to have bear spray, and if a bear gets that close, you need to activate or there’s a good chance you’ll end up on somebody’s menu…
It certainly means that they're no threat whatsoever, and being a bear he could take it as an offer of choosing happy meal he wants with zero fight. Authoritative voices are far more effective than a "please don't eat me Mr. Bear" voice.
🤦🏼♂️ Heard an old timer once say “planning a headshot on a charging bear is like thinking you can draw and hit a football thrown by a quarterback” When you encounter a bear as a group (whether you know the other hikers nearby or are seeing them for the first time) scrum together raising jackets, walking sticks, packs and arms to appear like a single, massive, unknown organism. Yell, blow emergency whistles and make noise. NEVER run. And don’t climb trees solo. Most black bears climb better than you do and grizzly bears move super fast. Unless your life is specifically threatened (and you happen to be carrying a 10mm, .44 magnum or .460 revolver) the best usage of a firearm is for its noise. Any bear who doesn’t haul ass at the report of a bullet, even a .22LR, means there’s something wrong with the bear or her cubs are danger close. Lastly per bear spray be certain you are upwind; not 1 second from temporarily blinding yourself. Deploy 1-2 second blasts between knee level and the ground. Do not blast the bear directly in the face. Repeat: do not blast the bear directly in its face. 💨🐻

You do realize that the bulk of grizzly and black bear food is plant material, right? They do eat carrion, dig up ground squirrels, and kill large animals on uncommon occasions, but their usual reaction to humans is simply to avoid them, right? You can see in this video that the bear's behavior is pretty much the same as the humans. It is hesitant to approach the people and has gotten off the trail temporarily to avoid them.
@@donnievance1942 Bears are omnivorous like us so yeah it's really down to luck if they are hungry of not, i would never go to a place like that without some firearm
FYI Katmai NP in Alaska is famous for hiking with the bears. You watch a DVD training and you get a pin for your shirt that you watched it. Usually the bears leave you alone. They have protected areas btw. Very fun!!!!

You have to make noise so they aren't surprised by you. Its dangerous to surprise a bear. Bear bells exist so you are making noise when hiking.

He's not hungry. Your lucky.
You do realize that the bulk of grizzly and black bear food is plant material, right? They do eat carrion, dig up ground squirrels, and kill large animals on uncommon occasions, but their usual reaction to humans is simply to avoid them, right? You can see in this video that the bear's behavior is pretty much the same as the humans. It is hesitant to approach the people and has gotten off the trail temporarily to avoid them.
Yes, usually.
@@donnievance1942 Bears are omnivorous like us so yeah it's really down to luck if they are hungry of not, i would never go to a place like that without some firearm
Bear was all “you guys are so lucky I just ate.”
Beary beary close.
FYI Katmai NP in Alaska is famous for hiking with the bears. You watch a DVD training and you get a pin for your shirt that you watched it. Usually the bears leave you alone. They have protected areas btw. Very fun!!!!
More accurate title - “Bear has intruders”
Bear: "your left or mine?"
If he's not eating you it's bcz he's got a full belly and doesn't need a couple of fools
Hikers always say Hey Bear. The bear is like, I’m full
He already knew they were there miles away. He's already full or they wouldn't of been alive to post this 😅
Totalmente cierto, su olfato es unas 2000 veces superior al nuestro. Tienen el mejor detector de comida
Exactly, bear knew a mile down the trail they were there.....they are well fed in that area
It's found footage
I don’t get it, why aren’t they going over and hugging the bears?
Big fat bear's who eat hiker's on paved trails
If you say hello bear do he knows that you are speaking to him lol
Are these people for real, hello bear with that super sized wild beast in front of them in the open. Bravery and risk is an understatement from where they are standing. These folks are a rare breed. Hello bear, hello bear.
What no cocaine?! 😂
