0:17 im less concerned with the bears than the people who think they could tank an elephant
I can kind of see how an overconfident, misguided idiot could think they stand a chance against a bear... but how do you even plan to hurt an elephant, let alone win against it?

It confounds me, people will lose their literal shit over the sight of a harmless insect (that happens to be larger than others, but still hardly even a fraction of our size), yet will approach Bears and Bison like they’re a friendly house pet
it's the fur. Has to be.
Pretty sure it has something to do with how cute we find mammals to be. I remember Vsauce did a video on cuteness ages ago which delved into that a bit iirc.

We're also hardwired to not like bugs - not for their threat to us, but for their association with spoiled food
the 17% that think they can handle a chimpanzees clearly never seen the poor woman missing her face
And the rest of her that got fucked up lol it was a macabre confetti-esque scene of tissue and appendages as I understand
they've never seen one without hair / or watched a joe rogan podcast
@@marce4241I'd even guess that they've only seen baby chimps since adults aren't used in media for obvious reasons! The few that do have enough emotional control when raised by humans to not be incredibly dangerous as adults, are often never seen by the general public because they need to be protected from idiots and may not be suited to living with other chimps anymore. And honestly I think you might be able to count the number of known cases of that occurring on one hand. And even then I think all of those ended up being bonobos, but even bonobos struggle with emotional regulation and can do an outlash squat that ends a person instantly. Humans lost some of our muscle capacity so our muscles can look like they're strong but are never as strong as the same amount of muscle on other primates. We are comparatively fragile. I wouldn't wish an aggressive encounter with an old world primate on anyone, not even a small macaque. They will own you. I suppose some of the long-tailed monkeys that get eaten by the other old world primates and the lemurs would be manageable but that's about it. Oh and even if a chimp has good emotional regulation you can never assume that they will the next day unfortunately.
Or the man missing his jewels
And she got off easy 😂 let’s just say they do worse to dudes so my comment doesn’t get deleted for being graphic 😂 that being said the 8% that think they can handle a gorilla are straight up crackheads cause that’s not happening either but you will be less punished for your foolishness cause unlike chimps gorillas have mercy
Forget the 6% that think they can wrestle a grizzly; I wanna know how the 8%, that say they can fight an elephant unarmed, think they could actaully get a swing in?!
My thoughts exactly! My guess would be that since unlike grizzlies, since they're not native to North America, people underestimate how truly big and impossible to even inconvenience a full grown elephant is for an unarmed human
The skin is thick... maybe they want to crawl through the back door to reach softer spots but how you get up there is a hole nother question.

Atleast a polar bear will finish me off
Polar bears tend to eat their prey while it's still alive. Grizzlies too.

@@Deathadder90wow, it makes sense too
@@Deathadder90 And easier to chew on, especially when your bite force is the worst of the family.

Fun thing about polar bears is they're also quite patient hunters. They see you as a meal, they have no problem with tracking you for dozens of miles and Waiting for you to slow down and get tired so they can amble on in and devour you. Fortunately for most people they still have problems with doors.
The day a polar bear learns to open doors is the day the arctic should be considered inhospitable
Seeing a polar bear on the horizon sounds like one of the most terrifying things ever. Seeing something like that jogging towards you is mind-meltingly scary.
They're hard to see because they blend in :D

I saw a pic of this guy holding a humongous rat I think it was in UK they were having hella problems. that was the day I started being a bit less comfortable with the idea of rats.
I'm concerned by the number of people who think they can take a f*cking Elephant while unarmed
Right? Like I'm guessing they must think 'oh it's huge I'll go punch it in the balls' or something without realizing that one those are internal on an elephant, and two the elephant can and will literally chokeslam them with his prehensile dick.
Like there is *no* weak point I can think to exploit on an elephant without a serious weapon.
Well, it's possible to win by ring-out.
Mostly because the elephant will not even realize the puny hairless ape is attacking and just... walk away.
@@lyravain6304or just run and hide and hope they don’t see you
@@lyravain6304 Elephants are absurdly smart and understand the intentions of many many species, friendly and hostile. If you start pressing it with an elephant, especially a male elephant, you're going to get the 101 in elephant communication on the spot. If you fail the exam at the end of the lesson you'll get elephant foreign policy 101 as a bonus.
@@andersjjensen Yeah, but elephants are smart enough to also understand that the naked hairless ape might have just gone crazy from the heat or something.
Not saying you'd HURT the elephant. Saying the elephant might find the attack so funny they just walk away. Because the best a human might hope to do is punch the elephant in the trunk or junk. At which point, the human's becoming a pancake.
And lawd have mercy on you if it's a bull in mating season.
“4.8% lost their ability to exist…………they’re dead” had me dead 😂🤣😂
In fairness, if I were constantly living in the same desolate conditions as a polar bear, I’d probably Assassin’s Creed a Beluga whale, too.
All I know about bears, is that if it's white, you bouta be seeing the white of the pearly gates.
Panda fur is white and their skin looks peachy underneath most of the fur (like the skin of white people) and polar bear fur is translucent and the skin of them is black.

You forgot to mention that Grizzlies and Polar Bears are breeding together now since the sea ice is melting. Pizzly Bears are golden and basically look like a Super Saiyan bear. The size and predatory instincts of a Polar Bear with the adaptability and climbing skills of Brown Bears and no need to live in cold climates. Good job humanity, your activities have created an Apex Apex predator.
Imagine being out in the wild and hearing... HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA and feeling a power level rise. If they learn instant transmission it's over for us.
Been happening for awhile now
Grolar/Pizzly bears are pretty cool though name based on fur color or parentage line I wonder which will be the dominant 😱
I live in Yukon, and I've been trying to find out what the characteristics of those bears are. I've asked natives, locals, and even animal scientists, and no one knows!
@@klondikechris I've heard they take after Polar Bears
They're also apparently hyper-aggressive

💯 agreed
Before the video started, I knew the polar bear was MERK level 10. Most bears want nothing to do with humans. Polars want EVERYTHING to do with us.
On svalbard there was a bear named frost, she wouldnt harm anyone and would go into cabins that she thought didnt have any people in it to eat the food in there. She wasnt a problem but her cubs were, because she was smart enough to avoid and not attack humans, her cubs didnt give a fuck so they would break into cabins and kill/harm people. But since most people either carry a .44 magnum or a 308 or a 30-06 rifle the cubs would die most of the time. Anyways she died this year if i remember it was because she got anesthesia and then drowned, you should search it up
When you live in an environment where food is scarce, anything you can get your teeth around IS food
MERK level!! 😮😮😮😮
We're crunchy AND chewy!
Canadian viewer who can verify here. In Churchill, Manitoba, it's even become expected of you to leave your car doors unlocked specifically because of the likelihood of polar bears wandering into town--people might need to duck into the nearest vehicle to avoid being attacked.
That little polar bear cub in the thumbnail though, so cute and harmless looking that my dumb a$$ nearly missed the mother in the background ☠️😂
I need the confidence of everyone who chose farther down than “large dog” on the list. Love that most people decide anything bigger than a rat could beat them. I think I could take a rat, house cat, or medium sized dog.
I think your take is the most reasonable. Medium dog, maybe, anything bigger, you have a surprisingly low chance. Humans are weak without tools, OP with even a sharpened stick.
For those that don't know, the "if you know you know" couple was Timothy Treadwell and his girlfriend. Tim thought he could basically bond with wild bears and took his gf with him to set up camp in bear country. Take a wild guess what happened next. He genuinely loved bears, but bro had the kind of hubris that would make Icarus blush.
That alone wasn't the problem- the real problem was a drought that left the mother bear in the area so desperate she was willing to kill her own cub to survive. Whether recognition of danger or some weird affection, the mother bear who did it had tolerated Treadwell hanging around in her territory before. The mistake wasn't hubris, it was lack of caution. After the cub was killed, the recordings recovered made it pretty clear that Treadwell knew he and his girlfriend were probably her next meals. He just didn't have any sort of emergency beacon to get picked up before his trip was scheduled to be over, so even when he knew it was coming there was no escape.
LMAO...
The worst part is the two bears that killed Treadwell (who clearly didn’t do that) where bears he knew were dangerous. In his recovered writings after the attack he named them Demon and Machine. Then to top it all off the Timothy causes something like a dozen bears to get killed. Obviously Demon and Machine. But the bears he spent the most time around were acclimatized to humans and started approaching humans.
@@whiteraven181I think people were also downplay Treadwells fame seeking behaviour. The man wanted to be a tv star. Then as he began bringing back those tapes of him being super close to bears, he started getting invited on talk shows. Then the stupider and stupider stuff began happening. The stuff like getting in the water or approaching Cubs. Those started after he got face as the “Grizzly man” heck the stopping of taking a gun or even bear spray was in the second half of his filming.
How he lasted 13 years is beyond me.
@@sECUREij Yup. The bears just went bear and they paid for it.
Fun Fact:
Grizzly Bear mothers in Yellowstone have actually used the close proximity of tourists as a deterrent to boars (males) to keep them from unaliving their cubs.
Smart and adaptable. Impressive... 😕
yes! which is so interesting because not only do they recognize we dont want their cubs but they also learned to use us to their advantage JUST from their own experiences(ie not us feeding them etc)
I can imagine the Boars are annoyed they can't get their food with tourists nearby.
Bears choose man over bear lmao
Mom bear :You don’t have to outrun the male bear kids, just outrun one of the tourist.

I'm not scared of rats but I have extrem fear of roaches! So I know I would lose miserably if I had to fight a cockroach! 😂
the funniest thing about the andean bear "escape" in the berlin zoo was that mothers were screeching about "what could have happened" to which the director replied that the bear is really more into vegetables and that he was more concerned that some of the fathers at the scene were too busy filming to check on their kids

A good indicator of how dangerous polar bears are is that people on Svalbard (one of the few places on Earth where both humans and polar bears live) are required by law to own a large caliber gun and they must carry it with them if they go outside the city.
Damm. Everyone must be strapped by Law. 😮
I believe it's one of the few animals on the planet that will hunt a human.
@@LordVulcan93 yeah they are. Humans are seen as food by the things, it’s rare for animals to see humans as a food source…

Fun fact: Yes, pandas do have an immense bite force, but because they exclusively eat bamboo, and it has very little nutrition, they're metabolism is pretty slow - which is why if you've pissed them off enough for them to exert the effort to attack you, you definitely deserved it. Pandas can easily delete you, but you have to given them a reason to do it.
Reminds me of a quote I'd read about an Old West doctor saying that "A victim bit by a Gila monster should just be left to expire... as the Gila monster is perhaps the laziest creature in all god's creation, and any fool bit would almost have to put their hands in the lizard's jaws themself."
I'm likely a panda. And the rest of the low nutrition complicated west.
Ironically, the bear with the weakest bite force is the polar bear.
Because you don’t need to have a strong bite force to eat the blubber of seals, walruses, and cetaceans.
Their bodies are also capable of eating meat, they just choose not to
@@punishedwhispers1218 They're SUPPOSED to eat meat. They're considered carnivores. But pandas just really love that tall, tasteless plant
Always remember: Most animals will at least give you the courtesy of death before eating you, but bears are not on that list: In the words of Alan Grant, "You are alive when they start to eat you"
Same with Hyenas, except the entire pack is going to treat you like a living buffet line at the same time. Wolves also kill smaller prey the same way, but it's hard to get actual evidence of wolves eating live humans, it's assumed most cases where wolves dined on human are cases where the person was already past tense and the wolves were just scavenging.
@@mrvwbug4423 considering how much generational trauma wolves have relating to people it is basically impossible to find examples of them eating people, their inbred cousins the domestic dog is more likely to eat people.
@@mrvwbug4423 be fair the smalley prey is dead in seconds in that regard. Bears are powerful but few of them are efficient in killing, save for the polar bear. They re jut so fuckign strong they can get away with it.
Hyenas and wild dogs though, their motivations is competition. faster they eat the less likely something rolls in to take the meal.
Actually, no, most predators will not kill you first, only incapacitate you. It's basically cats alone that kill first, eat second.
@@taddad2641 redacted in seconds doesn't mean they weren't being eaten alive homie
I'm from Finland. We have large forests and quite a lot of brown bears. I've been told that bears avoid people except if you accidentally end up between a mother and her cub. The mother will attack and try to kill you.
I live in Florida, US and we have black bears. They're so cute❤❤❤they walk on their hind legs sometimes.
I have no idea how this ended up in my vid feed but it was fun to watch. I refuse to go anywhere there’s ever been a bear sighting so I’m good.
That poor bicycle. That spectacled bear was too ruthless on it.
Just before that clip I got an razor add where it stated: _"What if your shower scene turns into a horror scene?"_
I laughed so hard because the timing was perfect. And then the contrast to the bicycle was the cherry on the cake.
I saw the bike and half expected the bear to try to hop on it.

American Bears: oh shit, I'm out
European Bears: 😳 I- don't mind me...
any other bear: OH YOU WANNA GO?!
Truth. Over here, though, they just assume everyone has a gun.
And over here they’re the biggest and baddest thing around. Everywhere else, exception of polar bears in Alaska, something tries to murk them
american bears found out that adreline was in fact, not a joke when they decided to attack american settlers
It's probably the guns. Who wants to mess with a creature that carries around a death stick that can end your life instantly?
I'd say Brown Bears in most of Europe aren't likely to go ape-shit on you. They're either gonna share the reaction of the American bears, or be like "Don't mind me" while continuing to rummage through your garbage.
It's mostly the Asian bears that compete with tigers and leopards that are more trigger happy.

It's dumb that so many platforms are overcensoring words, but it's always funny when a creator works around it creatively and with a wide range of terms instead of the standard unaliving
There's a forum with an autocensor, and I swear my experience reading a LP on there was elevated by "gently caress" replacing all the f-bombs. It just worked somehow.
W casual geographic I feel like it goes past mere censorship. He is a poet, an orator, a speaker who could turn an army back with persuasive words alone. He just so happens to be on CZcams instead of advising a god king
It's dumb but also makes you question why the censor is there in the first place if you can just change out the word but retain the meaning
@@intergalacticspacewizard1966 i've wondered this since i was a little kid, when ppl would go from "oh hell" to "oh heck" around us kids, and replace other words like that, e.g. "butthole". and i was like .. what's the point? i know you're using a curse/insult rn, you know you're using a curse/insult rn, can't we just drop the pretence? lol

Happy belated Birthday! I found your channel today, and I am hooked.
I'm always stunned by the narration here. It's the best that I've found anywhere. 👍
It's a comfort to know that most bears will leave me the hell alone if I've announced myself way before stumbling into it.
In Japan, and I think other places also, there are bear bells, which are pretty much just small bells that you carry around so the bears can hear you coming and go around you.
this is kinda like how car horn & bike bell are supposed to be used: when you go around tight corners & crossroads but see no traffic, you still need to announce your presence - lest an unsuspecting car zip through and flatline your car
I like the use of "most"
@@Kartoffelkamm Yep, when I backpacked in Alaska the rangers told us to keep making noise so the bears could hear us coming and go around us and keep our food in barrels that we put a little ways off our camp so they wouldn't go to our tents to get the food.
Bears are fine so long as you RSVP
I taught Primary school in Appalachia. One time a mama Black bear and 2 cubs got into the playground, so we went on a soft lockdown.
I swear it looked like mama was just drinking her coffee and filing her nails while the kids played and gave her some peace. One cub found the swings and laid on one and pushed himself back and forth. The other one found the slide and had a blast going down it.
Eventually Fish and Wildlife showed up, darted them, and took them higher up into the mountains.
Lesson plan for the day? No idea, but we learned a lot about Black Bears and Fish and Wildlife
The "Modified Lesson Plan": Nature studies, Common Sense in Nature, Survival Philosophy in Nature?

They must’ve been so confused what they woke up in another neighbourhood
Black bears are actually super chill! I’m spending the week at a research center in Minnesota dedicated to them currently, and they’ve been nothing but docile towards humans (other than a playful swat to my backside from one of the juveniles, who was looking for attention). Diversionary feeding practices do actually help keep them out of populated areas if done correctly, though.

So, I’ve been an Uber driver for nearly 6 years. My first year, I pick up this pretty cool, pretty chatty rider. It was cool tho, cause I’m pretty chatty myself. Dude and I got to talking about social media and creating content. Told me had a couple channels on a couple different platforms. As I dropped him off, he humbly told me his CZcams channel name and I put it into my search. A couple days later, that recent search caught my eye, so I figured I’d check out some of his content. The channel name was “Casual Geographic”, and I’ve been a subscriber and frequent viewer ever since. Thank you, Mamadou, for all the hours of content and entertainment I’ve enjoyed now for nearly half a decade. Catch you on the flip.
Damn that's cool af
No fucking way, that is CRAZY
@@DarthSidian It can't be true. Casual Geographic created his channel in 2020. So this couldn't have happened 6 or 5 years ago, lol.
The last 5 years been all down hill since huh😂😢😭
@@outoforder8791The only way I could see this being possible is either if casual had another CZcams channel for this (before he renamed himself) or that this person got the date wrong.
Plus size, eyeshadow, cotton ball! XD Omg, that's one of my favorite things about your videos. Your nicknames for animals sometimes make me get abs of steel! LOL! Keep it going!
I know someone who survived a polar bear (the bear just snorted and peace out), and they're just as confused as us. And minorly insulted that the bear didn't see them as good enough to eat.
I'd rather be offended than honored then haha
Bro just smells bad I guess.
Seriously though, the bear probably wasn't hungry
He probably shat himself something fierce in order to get that bear off of him LMAO
I respect it though, survival is survival
@@DarthSidian I'm not gonna cap this gave me a good laugh
It's the annoying wrapper.
About 10 years ago, I was hiking the High Sierra Trail, day 4, we're camping on the Kern river and lit a small fire. About 10pm, I decided to go get some more firewood, and saw a hiker coming down the trail.
I thought it was weird, he had 2 headlamps, not just one... That's when I realized, it was a bear and my headlamp was reflecting in his eyes.
I let out a manly war cry, that I choose to deny, sounded like a little girl screaming, and ran back to camp to tell everyone a bear was coming, but he didn't come into camp.
Happy Birthday!
I mean....if you know the destructive power of almost any bear, any girly scream would fit perfectly to me...
You yelled at a bear and lived to tell the tale. It counts as a manly war cry in my book.
did you die?
@@diliscollective9743 I think he did, but im not sure
@@diliscollective9743 Sadly, yes… but he lived!
Happy belated birthday dude!! Haven't watched your vids in a while but whenever I do I always laugh and I always learn something 🤘🏻✨️🐼🐻❄️🐻
It’s about time we get a video on the weirdest animal in nature. The platypus
My friend was camping and got a visit from a black bear and her cubs.
No bite marks, but he showed me the scars from the bears climbing around on his sleeping bag - including Mama Bear sitting on him.
I admit I teased him due to how he doesnt shave often that she mistook him for another cub.
Jfc! Your friend got lucky! Did he just lay still and pretend to be dead or was the mama bear aware he was there?
I've never camped in an area where bears could be a possibility, and tbh, I think if I was in your friend's situation, I would probably have a heart attack there on the spot!
@@ewill3435 He just laid still and let them be.
The cubs were apparently absurdly cute, but their play scarred him up because well, bear claws.
@@DAsrada that sounds both incredibly adorable, and pants browningly terrifying
we have a momma bear at the hospital I work at who's cubs keep coming into the ambulance bay in the ED and playing around in there, especially with their favorite toy- a traffic cone. Adorable, but guess who gets tapped to go shoo them off when we have a patient coming in? Yep. Same with the bloody porcupines that keep trying to get into the ED through the automatic doors. This shyte was not in my job description 🤣
Sloth bears are absolutely terrifying, I cannot believe people try to keep them as freaking tourist attractions. Happy birthday, dude!
Bud, people are still trying to put a Great White into captivity. Nothing surprised me in this world.
As a rimworld player, i can comfirm
Because hurting and humiliating a normally impressive creature, entertains small minds.
@@averycheesypotatoain’t that a sad truth. One of the reasons as well that i was never a fan of circus acts using animals since they’re not just humiliated but severely abused.
Can't put anything past anyone these days. And thank you!
Casual Geographic - you're definitely my favorite channel. ❤ Ya give me my animal fill, facts, and the humor.
This is the first video I have encountered from this channel. Immediate subscribe, great stuff.
Special mention for Jimbo the kodiak bear, who was so big he dwarfed his human even while laying down. He was a great example of how massive those things get. His owners were lucky he was so unusually gentle and aware. One errant twitch would've been enough to remove names from the census.
One play tap and you land roughly where the sun sets.

As a kid, I went to a wildlife sanctuary this dude and his family ran and while they focused on wolves, he actually did end up with a grizzly bear. Apparently someone bought it at a flea market and was told it was a dog, and that quickly proved to be a lie, so suddenly he has this growing male bear on his hands.
Let me tell you, this bear was a CHARMER. He made noises until the guy walked into the enclosure, then immediately stood up on his hind legs, waiting for a hug. Of course he got one, and then we learned that his favorite thing in the world was girl scout cookies! Such a giant animal, but so friendly with his needs met and lots of interaction
reminds me of the time I got to feed browns bears honey as a kid, there's a bear sancuary in hungary the young kids often take school trips too, they give you long wooden spoons and if you brought honey you can feed it to them
They get used to humans and see them as a source of food when they are well behaved.
Some people see that as them still secretly being monsters and not actually caring, to them I say, you can pass a calf and saw awww and then go home and eat a burger. Most animals, humans included, are capable of some relatability with other creatures, but there is always that disconnect.
Makes me worried if we ever find aliens.
where the hell do you live where a wildlife sanctuary owner gets away with entering an enclosure with a grown fucking BEAR
@@striker8961 Or if they find us! Historically being "diScOvEred" doesn't end well for people ;[
@@striker8961 _delicious_ aliens :D!
I think your book might oversimplify my Christmas shopping this year.
I appreciate that.
First time I've been happy about my phone listening to me. I love talking about how bad ass bears are. Great vid. Funny too. Subbed. Thanks!
i basically grew up in the woods, and we regularly had deer and bears visiting our yard. the deer were super chill and you could get basically close enough to pet them (which i did frequently, apparently). my mom wouldn’t buy me teddy bears (other stuffies were fine) since she was afraid I’d try to walk up and pet the BEAR CUBS. (to be fair, i probably would’ve done that, so she made the right call)
Smart of your mom
That’s something I’d probably do too ngl
Probably every person on Earth would have the urge to pet a bear cub. Only if you know about bears and that cuba usually have their mother somewhere around may you be able to suppress that urge.
It's fine mama bear can chill out @@angelsjoker8190
I had a co-worker who said he could take on a chimp and another co-worker who said he could take on a black bear. Ego goes crazy.
They’re both crazy, but the chimp guy is further in over his head!
Lmao you've got to be like me to take out a chimp😂
Ego, then he go, then... he gone.
Theyre built different
@@DirtyBobBojangles Bro thinks he's him💀
Good content like always. I dont watch every vid but i follow you since you were HoodNature. I love what you are doing, keep it up dude!
Excellent Video as always!! Well researched and great visuals!! You make learning fun and painless, unless you include the actual bear!! Bear = Respect!! Nice touch, "If you know, you know" yup. BTW Happy Birthday!! I'm sure you make your mom very proud!!❤🐻🐾🐼🐾
"He looks like a bear with social anxiety that got told to act natural".
Oh, so *that's* my spirit animal
6:46 Prior to today, I did _not_ know a cat could guard your home against a bear more effectively than most dogs can.
I mean, considering how often tigers were mentioned in the video and the one mention of panthers, that seems reasonable
Cats dgaf
You based that off a one clip lol. Dogs do far better than a cat, there's a reason why dogs are used to hunt bears.
I mean, it COULD, but it probably wont. A dog probably will. Sooo...
@@grimsonforce7504this probably really depends on the dog and less on the cat lol. A cat’s a cat and most breeds will do the same against a bear, the unusually large breeds notwithstanding. A chihuahua, a standard poodle, and a pit bull will have dramatically different matchups lol.
Happy late bday!! Ive loved your videos for like a year
In Wild Frank's words, an elephant is the only animal he thinks a human has a literal 0% chance against.
Other animals you at least may be able to harm if lucky.
"call me joe rogan or a grinder gladiator, we are going down the bear hole" 😭
I somehow missed this one and almost spit my drink!
😂😂 too good
Man, now i wanna reread Golden Kamuy
*joe rogan noises intensifying*
I actually hope Joe sees this video, I feel hes going to laugh his stoned ass off with that one 😂
Chimpanzee being higher on that list than a King Cobra or even a wolf is unhinged. One wolf I could likely make run away / give up, one mad Chimp? If it does run away from kicks and shoving my fingers in it's eyes it's only running to a tree so it can do that stupid Chimp spin around the tree thing then come running at me full tilt and rip my fuckin wiener off.
Hell. No.
Man I'd still take on a bear rather than a chimpanzee, if given the option. Coz at least the bear would make it quicker than a chimp. Fuck you Ceaser.
See a wolf will just kill you, a chimpanzee will make you wish it did.
😂 I shouldn't have laughed, but your description was hilarious. And for the record, I agree. Big NOPE for fighting a chimp!
I would still rather fight a Bear than a chimp. F you Cesar.
Or they’re running to get the colony on you
Why did this end up in my feed? I'm glad it did. Extremely entertaining commentary.
Bro, happy birthday! Thank you for another great video
Black bear broke into my tent when I was camping, years ago… I come awake, screeching like a fox or barn owl, flailing a tree branch I had (no, I don’t recall why I had a branch!). And that poor teddy flees up a tree! And then we spent several minutes just looking at each other. Not eye contact, but me just kinda watching where the bear was, and bear watching me, making sure he’s not getting hit with that branch… again.
I guess that was the first time he poked into a tent containing a human. He was definitely startled!
And Happy Birthday, my dude! 🎉🎂 (We’re a week apart)
Bro just wanted to steal some food and ended up dealing with a whole human
@@genericname2747 Bro just wanted marshmellows but ended up with PTSD😔
I'm surprised that casual geographic didn't point out that the black bears trying to eat you is the reason why you attack a black bear when there's a confrontation, and the grizzlies being defensive being the reason why you play dead if it's a grizzly. Kind of seems like important information for people to know and I think he's mentioned it before but it would have been perfect in this video. Black bears are thinking you might be an easy meal, brown bears are thinking you might be dangerous for them in most cases. Do not mess with either if they have cubs. And yeah it is weird that the bigger ones see you as a threat but those big ones tend to be more food thiefs than active predators. Black bears on the other hand aren't quite large enough to steal food regularly and easily from other predators so they will hightail it unless they think they can get away with it safely and prefer to hunt weak things directly. I believe it's even been shown that some of the largest of the brown bears don't actually end up hunting at all they just waltz up and take whatever they want from anything they come across😂
Aww poor teddy didn't get to eat you😢
@@ThelastShepherd. I probably taste terrible. It’s why many animals don’t eat humans. We don’t taste good
It was last month that I, Alaskan Native, had to watch the couple hundred fish that I helped catch with my father while he went to get some equipment. I decided to lie down and close my eyes for a minute as I was out on the river for hours at that point. I was down for a good minute before I heard a voice in my head say "Sit up. Right NOW." I did and not even twenty feet from me was a Kodiak GRIZZLY mother with her three cubs around her. I have never been so thankful that the bears were not hungry enough to just kill me to get the fish as she and her young were surprised enough by me popping up out of my spot that they went the other way.
Holy sh*t!!!
YOU SIR dodged a missile, Holy fuck! 🤯
That voice u heard was GOD.
The mother must have smelled the sht in your pants and decided not to let her kids get near you.
I'm curious, how did the voice sound ? Are you religious ? If not, are you now ?
This is so entertaining, interesting and informative!! :00 subscribed!
Happy belated bruh. I love your work
I live near the Smoky Mountains, so black bears are a pretty common sight around here. What infuriates me is the news stories surrounding them. I _constantly_ hear about dumbass tourists in Gatlinburg trying to feed bears that wander into town. And then there's the tourists who leave food in their car and leave the door unlocked or the window down. There need to be signs posted every 3 feet warning people "DO NOT FEED THE BEARS" and "BEARS CAN OPEN CAR DOORS".
I work at a resort around the same area, and we are CONSTANTLY telling people to lock their car doors, as the bears can and WILL break in. 9 times out of 10, people listen. The few who don't listen, however...
We lived in sevierville up near wears valley. You could see the parkway from our place.
Had the front door open one day, and my wife started yelling. What she thought was a neighbors dog was a bear.
Possibly the same one eventually came back and raided our garbage.
Not too long after that, a mama and cubs decided to live in our neighbors tree. Scared the crap out of em. Clawing at their screens, they couldn't let their dogs out.
Animal control basically told em they couldn't do jack.
It's just like Florida. Somebody says alligator and the turons all head towards it while the locals nope out.
I visit Gatlinburg every couple years and my dad told me a story once when we were in pigeon forge swimming I was just a baby right down the river was the largest black bear he’s ever seen like big enough to be mistaken for a small brown bear. He picked me and my brothers up and we were gone.
people have lost touch w nature and the internet actively skews our pov of it bc everyone want a vid feeding a wild animal.
Okay so what I'M hearing is that if I leave my car unlocked there's a chance the bear will end up hitting the gas pedal and then there's a bear driving my car
My dad used to be in the forest service, he said that it was uncanny how much a bear’s anatomy resembled human anatomy.
New theory: We evolved from bears
Lol wut
Fun fact: you win a fight against a bear the same way you win a fight against a human. You kick it in the balls.
@WrottJackson
or you shoot it, but like with humans, this should be the in case of emergency
@@WrottJackson what if its a woman

I'm more shocked that 28% don't think they could beat a rat in a fight.
They do eat children tho

“Basically a giant unhinged dog with every attribute maxed” 😂 perfect description of a grizzly bear
People are gawking at the percentages of people who think they could beat a grizzly or an elephant, but I'm just glad 51% stopped at medium sized dog
Also, happy birthday!
The correct answer is a big ass tortoise or a porcupine. Things that don't require much strength to fight and things that are to slow or have a hard time actually fatally injuring you. Slightly bigger than a medium sized dog and you will eventually find a way around their defense with smarts. Anything even slightly bigger and you're pushing your luck.
It depends what the fight is about too tbh.
