We have a young bear that comes now and again and does this while enjoying our bird feeder/ the little stinker! We named him Teddy after he showed us the goods. We enjoy your videos very much. Bears are the best.
@@lorraineharris243 Well that's what they call it at Brooks Falls bear cam site on explore.org - amazing site for watching bears - I watch on youtube on my TV.
Wendy Rual - That is some wicked wound, eh? I think it is healing well. It rather looks like the sort of injury a bear would get from scaling a barbed-wire fence. Either that or it looks like a tumor of sorts. Hard to tell. I’ve seen this guy a few times this year already. I may have seen him in previous years, too, although I’d have to scroll through past footage to see if I can tell that for sure. He has a pretty serious face, eh? I jokingly decided to call this guy Ted for the purposes of this post, and because of his crazy-adamant attitude. I called him that mostly after the infamous guitar-slayer/gun-slinger dude who is certifiably nuts. But it also works to name him, in part after the former President and organizer of the Rough Riders who was so very fond of wildlife - albeit fond for both preserving that wildlife, as well as shooting it. Sigh.
Well, I think the message is pretty clear! No wonder the other bears did no leave their mark it would have been pointless! This was hilarious and the stomping was very funny too!🐾🐻🐾🌳🍃🍂
Thankyou for the beautiful uploads, I am so delighted to have found you, catching up on past videos , delightful stuff, take care & keep them coming 👍😁❤
Yeah - they are all pretty good at that! 🤣 I learned from Ben Kilham the reason for what I call the girl-tassle - those strands of fur that extend from below a sow’s rear end. They use that fur to disseminate their own scent as they walk and straddle vegetation. They may not have the same “dangling participles” as the boys, but they can multi-task with the best of them, and leave their marks just as well.
We can’t tell when they’ve been nearby, unless we can actually hear them in the woods nearby, or if I can see obvious bear damage to my trees and other plantings. Our dogs can smell them, though! I’m about 5’3” to 5’4” tall. For grins, I put together this little gif-type comparison for folks who ask about the height of bears. It may help give you the perspective you’re looking for? (Short of an exact measurement, of course. I’m not sure which bear this is - but I don’t think it’s the tallest bear. We do get bigger/taller bears coming through here than the one who appears in this video. th-cam.com/video/1jSFx_ND604/w-d-xo.html
It can be a little spooky there, especially at dusk or dawn, although I’m not sure why that is other than the moodier lighting. We see bears pass through there at all times of day or night. We’ve been living in and walking through bear country for 20 years now. So far so good. There is always a danger, of course, but bears generally want nothing to do with humans. They are only after food when they come close to houses. That’s why it is important not to feed the birds during the warmer months. When I’m out on the trails by myself, I’ve added ankle-bells to my gardening outfit so the bears can hear me coming. They tend to just head off further into the forest when we see each other along the same path.
Ольга Борисовна - Yes! The Momma Bears can be fierce protectors. We’ve never been truly charged by one, but we’ve heard a lot of the loud chuffing noises, and the Momma has faux-charged us before. (Back at our old home where we were 2 stories off the ground, so we were all safe from one another.)
Catherine Young - Definitely an injury of some sort. Perhaps from trying to scale a barbed wire fence? This guy definitely has a messed up gait. All bears are pigeon-toed to a point, but this guy seems even more bowlegged than usual. Perhaps he fell and broke some bones a long time ago and never quite healed right? I see that from time to time. He still gets around, obviously, but he does so at a different pace than most of the other bears I see come through here. I’m sure he could pick up the pace if he wanted to, and if he needed to, but in general he moves with what looks to me like a definite level of discomfort.
Bear: Oh another camera? Here ya go...here’s a special show for ya🤣
Niixz PK - HAHAHAHAHA
Who'd have thunk it???? Bears are multi-taskers!!! :)
Jenise Coronado - HAHAHAHAHA
He must be marking his spot or territory!! He got a good back rubbing while he was at it.
Now I know how four claw marks appear high on tree trunks
I guess wolverine isn't following me after all!
God Bless
Haha 😂 it looks like you're safe!!! 👍
Reminds me of my husband after too many beers in the pub.
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
“And this is what I do if there’s no hammock”
HAHAHAHAHAHA

Little stinker, indeed.
Make no mistake, this is MY tree! 😂
Hilarious! They call that "cowboy walking" - after John Wayne I guess.
Thanks for that info, a suitable title 👍😁

Precious! Love the stomping movement!
Yes I noticed that wound, hope "TED" will be ok 💕💕

He's making it clear to other males that this is his territory. The other males are not anxious to compete with him. They are trying to go unnoticed.
John Smith -Exactly. Those other fellas knew better than to try to out-mark that dude. He staked his claim.
Thankyou for the beautiful uploads, I am so delighted to have found you, catching up on past videos , delightful stuff, take care & keep them coming 👍😁❤
thank you!
Are you kidding!!! What an awesome character.
little jack - He really is, isn’t he? He’s crazy-adamant about saying MINE!
Fascinating to see how bear sign comes about. All that was best-speak for “mine!” 🐻
Bentbrook's Rambles - MINE, MINE, MINE, MINE - 4x to be extra sure :-)
Well that answers that question... a bear does pee in the woods. Lol
Haha loved your description of him. Yes he really has an attitude 🥰
Havin'' a quick slash & a quick scratch. He must've been in a hurry on his way to a meeting.
or several consecutive meetings 🙄 🐻 😁
Mr. Ted E. Bear, nice to meet you! I guess we should call this the Ted E. Bear Tree from now on! Great video; thanks.
@ just listening. Or Ted P. Bear!
That's efficiency right there, multitasking
Yeah - they are all pretty good at that! 🤣

Thank you for sharing. Reaaly interesting.
He needs a tree with more bark
No kidding.
A tree with more bark and less bite.. Haha! 😄
He seriously wanted to get his memo out to all!!!😂
🤣 🤣 🤣
Hear Ye! Hear Ye!
Brownie Was Here!
Nice multitasking!
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
Another viewer cracked me up when he said, “That’s how I do it!”
That bear is scary coming across TH-cam....😬😬😬
He’s impressive, isn’t he!?
FAIRVIEWCRITTERCAMS Yes!!! Very regal and very intimidating.
Ya gotta go, ya just gotta go!
That's the way I do it!
Major Allen Espy - HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
Major Allen Espy - Crack me up.
It feels good, being a bear.
The best!
When I do that people say we when they to that they say lol
"Mr. Dribbles." 😂
HAHAHAHA
That bear just "me tooed" that tree
Lol I had these big bears I'd say 300 to 400 pounds on my trail cam doing this😁 I think it's adorable ❤️
Tracy Woods - ME, ME, ME!!! - MINE, ALL MINE!
❤❤❤
I can tell when the raccoons have been by
He got a good back rub. I’d love to know what part of the Country this is? ♥️
We are just north of Asheville in the mountains of western North Carolina.
Multi tasking.
Yes! HAHAHAHA
👍👍👍❤❤❤❤❤❤👍👍👍
So did you check to see how tall he is? Do they smell? Can you tell if they have been around by the smell!
We can’t tell when they’ve been nearby, unless we can actually hear them in the woods nearby, or if I can see obvious bear damage to my trees and other plantings. Our dogs can smell them, though!

FAIRVIEWCRITTERCAMS wow the bear is huge! Glad they dont smell. Your surroundings are beautiful and very peaceful. Very magical!
@@FAIRVIEWCRITTERCAMS omg. Bigger. To me he looks huge. I feel for this guy with his wound but hopefully its from barbed wire rather than a tumour.
- This is my tree! Said the huge bear while he rubbed his back on a tree, and peed at the same time. He’s a master no doubt! 😄 Great video! 👍

Well then.
Ещё и на цыпочки встал,чтобы повыше метку поставить....
Не страшно было камеру устанавливать,уж очень место оживленное?

@@FAIRVIEWCRITTERCAMS это очень мило...но наши русские бурые мамаши медведи могут быть очень агоессивны,если встретить их с малышами в лесу

🤣🤣🤣
Is that an injury on his left side?
I noticed that too. Or maybe an insect bite that got infected? He seems to move his hind legs a bit weird as well
Catherine Young - Definitely an injury of some sort. Perhaps from trying to scale a barbed wire fence?
This guy definitely has a messed up gait. All bears are pigeon-toed to a point, but this guy seems even more bowlegged than usual.
