where do you live, jellystone park?

Where the hell is your neighbor (Earl?) when you REALLY need him? He wouldn't even need a gun...just his stance of dominance should have killed and skinned the bear in one fell swoop.

 

[n7]

well that's a bit unsettling...

 

[DrPizza]

Meh, just say hello to the bear as you walk past on your way to your car. Black bears rarely hurt people.

 

[Fenixgoon]

looks like you didn't pay your bear tax or homer tax

 

[NuclearNed]

Nice driveway!

thx!

 

[NuclearNed]

That bear looks ickle-sized, is it a young/baby one? If so, I'd be more worried, as it's a reasonable assumption that its tetchy/defensive mother is around.

Please excuse my bear-related ignorance; if bears ever were indigenous to the UK, I suspect that they had all be converted to rugs at least a hundred years ago. I also suspect that the UK government would be even more tetchy about bear immigrants trying to board lorries to get through the channel tunnel.

That's a rather large black bear. I've seen a few that were larger, but not many.

He's probably busy fighting Commies or saving America in some other manly way.

Huh. Its position in the pic makes it look about two feet tall (when on all fours). My impression was that fully grown adult bears are of the size that (when standing) would look down on me (me about 5' 10") with a "I'll fuck you up" look on their face, and even on all fours that the highest part of their body would be as tall as or taller than I am.

My front door, this morning.

Dude,

You need to get yourself a well trained cat!

Youtube 41 second video

Uno

 

[BurnItDwn]

That dog looks weird.

 

[Red Squirrel]

If you open the door suddenly it will probably scare the bear away. I see em sometimes when going for a walk, just keep walking towards them, they go away. It is a bit unnerving, but you don't want to show signs of fear, they can practically smell that.

 

[Red Squirrel]

lmao! That needs to be made into a thug life video. I like how the cat looks at the camera after like "see? I showed him!"

OMFG that's cute as hell, vicious little ah heck. :thumbsup:

 

[DigDog]

i take it those things are aggressive?

wouldn't throwing him a can of dog food work?
(i honestly do not know the answer to either question, so feel free to educate me; we don't have bear here. anymore. we ate them.)

Bears generally are big babies that are terrified of people. They can be pretty aggressive if they are sick/hurt, protecting their young, or protecting their territory. If they eat at a place often enough, they consider that place to be their territory... so I def don't want this bear to find my birdfood ever again.

Throwing food at a bear is a terrible thing to do because often it leads bears to make an association between people and food. You can imagine why that might be bad...

 

[Red Squirrel]

Yeah never feed bears. I have to laugh because you'd think it would be engraved in people's minds but a few years back there was this family of bears that hung out near the highway and people would stop, get out of their car and then go feed the cubs! As cute as it might be, it's for their own safety as well as yours that you don't feed them. If too many bears are coming to town and getting used to humans they end up being killed. They used to relocate them but now there's so many of them they only take action if it's a danger and at that point they kill them. If they relocate it might just come back.

 

[skyking]

firecrackers are a common deterrent. No food + firecrackers = I'm not coming back here.

 

[DAPUNISHER]

She already wants to pet it. All I have to do is tell her that it will be alright. I *promise*.

Lulz!

 

[brianmanahan]

bears are 10000 times stronger than us. i am positive i would die a horrible death to a bear.

i know how to fight against wild animals, particularly dogs, but still, no dog is anything like a bear.
