Bear Simone - A Little Tuckered Out, Thank You For Asking

  • เผยแพร่เมื่อ 21 พ.ค. 2022
  • Milo was particularly eager this morning. If he keeps this up much longer he's going to earn himself a timeout. Simone looks like she's almost reached that stage where she can't wait to send these guys off to summer camp. And "forget" to pick them up.
    A nice moment of tenderness between Mom and Milo. They all love each other so much.

      @Sephiroth08150 2 ปีที่แล้ว +73

      If a bear sow is accompanied by cubs, then she isn't waiting for more. The mating process involves the cubs leaving, either because Mom chase them away so she can leave her scent in her territory to signal a male that she is ready, or a male bear already chased her cubs for her to make her receptive to mating.

      I think your "read" on their behavior is spot on, esp. the last cub. It really wanted to play more with the human but analyzed the situation enough to want the gate open as a means of escape, if needed. Without the gate open, it was too leery to enter the human playpen.

      That's the most aggressive I've seen Milo unless I missed something. I don't think he was purposefully being aggressive or meant harm. They were ready at the time of this video to be kicked out of the family. I think it was within a week or so that she kicked them out of the nest. They are the same as teenagers now...testing the boundaries and not quite knowing if it's ok to 'play' with Patrick, and not knowing their own capabilities. Notice Milo left and tried to play with his mother. I think it was just a teenager messing around with the boundaries. But Patrick knew to put him in his place. Allowing it to go further could be dangerous for the next human he would encounter.
      As for his sister...isn't Luca her name, I've never seen her get rowdy. She's usually not even been very curious. It was definitely time for Simone to send them on their way into adulthood.

      Agree, except that the mother actually brought the cubs to him. There is at least one or two times he has felt the need to do something to make a cub back off (couldn't see exactly what he did because he's behind the camera). Mom just sat there looking disinterested. And, this mamma has had two litters (that I am aware of), and knows Patrick and his porch quite well.
      (Have you seen the one where he's in the yard and mamma comes down off the porch? Wow! He goes kind of behind her to move toward the steps and she does a false charge! How he didn't even flinch is beyond me! I think the lesson there was DO NOT go behind a bear so that it cannot see what you are doing - natural defense kicks in.

This isn’t Patrick’s daughter bringing the kids to visit grandpa. It’s a trio of wild bears coming out of the woods to forage. Despite all the cutesy analogies to grandkids, the bears are being massively disrespected.

      Ticks and Lyme Disease are a big problem in this area, and I’m just a few hours north east of Asheville, in the Blue Ridge Mountains. Our dogs stay on flea tick meds from mid Spring into Fall. There are some other tick carried diseases, too, here.
      Our dog has seasonal allergies and we get him allergy meds. He actually lets us know when he wants a pill for relief. It makes him sleepy, so we don’t keep him on it 24/7. Simone reminded me of that same itching…and her eyes look watery.

      No they will get a lot bigger before leaving their mom. It used to be that experts thought bears stayed with their moms around a year and a half, but now they claim bears stay on average 2 and a half years. They claim that bears are now staying an extra year compared to 30 or 40 years ago. In reality they have just done more research and found out they were wrong. Some experts have even witnessed bears stay with their moms for around 5 years. A lot of times you will see a bunch of bear cubs that are much bigger than the mom, and they are still following her around. I think it really just depends on the bears, and there is no real set time, but it does seem apparent that most bears stay longer with their mom than most experts claim. Kinda weird how the experts keep getting things wrong. They must've really had their minds blown when they discovered whales and dolphins breastfeed their babies.

    I reckon that the cubs are anxious because they sense Simone is not well. I think they are probably hungrier than usual as they can't travel so far, and were a bit more testy with Patrick when no food was forthcoming. I think that particularly showed when the cub climbed up for a staredown with Patrick, then started clacking his jaws (which I've never seen any bear do on this channel).
