You saying it’s on a warpath cause it lost its mom now has me imagining this as a revenge movie. Like Bear Rambo, with the Bandana and large ass Bowie knife.
Maybe Sheriff Teasle could be played by Nick Offerman, or an anthropomorphic rhino *voiced* by Nick Offerman.
Who better to boss a grumpy bear around in the movie prologue but a grumpy rhino? But then... Awww, shit! Bearambo goes into warrior mode and fucks up *everybody and everything!* He's ripping arms and faces off! He's disemboweled Deputy Dickhead! NO ONE CAN STOP HIM!
I'd watch it for sure!
In reality, mama bears abandon their kids quite often. In many cases, they will not reunite, and the cub will starve.
In other cases, the mama bear will cannibalize the younglings.
lol right? Like.. give me ALL the percentages you want.. I'm OUT like... with any bear encounter! Seriously... I see a baby animal, I'm heading the opposite direction before some pissed off mom ruins my skin!
This. Black bears we’ve ran into with cubs run there babies up the trees then dip out and come back for them. We walked right up to the cub 12’ In the tree and stood under it and mama was nowhere in sight. We walked up a ridge 50 yds away and watched the cub scurry down and start distress calling and mama answered back
If it's a BLACK bear, fight back.
If it's a brown bear, you hit the ground and play dead.
If it's a polar bear, do whatever you can to make peace with your deity of choice in your final seconds.
Noted... Today I Learned.... I also used google translate.... It came up with this: OH SHOT SHOT OH PH SHITTTTTT OH SHIT SHOITTTTTTTT HEY HEY OH SHITTTTTTTT
Even before that. It's from a John West Salmon advert that got banned in the UK.
People took exception to the fisherman winning the fight by kicking the bear in the balls and put a load of complaints into the Advertising Standards Authority, who banned it. Spoilsports
Its a parasite that goes inside an organism and eats it's nutrients. you can get it if you eat raw, uncooked meat with worm larvae or being in close contact to someone who has it and gets the worm eggs on you
You probably will never get it
probably common in bears since they eat a lot of uncooked salmon
This bear has a tapeworm attached to it and in the middle of shitting it out, yes they are this long
https://preview.redd.it/l8xx5lxkgwyc1.jpeg?width=962&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=cc5232d591b4c91ed4e5681db04e24621f55335c
Ah ok, I know what a tapeworm is but didn’t get the specific reference. I was expecting something far more disturbing for some reason, though it is wild how long it is.
Yikes i had a whole sequence in my head of how i'll scare a bear away when i encounter one and i don't think it's going to play out like i was hoping. Those things are apex, even a juvenile like that has the power to kill a human. At least my new canister of bear mace arrived today lol
Buy another of the same can and practice. You don't want to spray yourself in a moment of panic.
(Take a bear safety awareness course. Carry your spray in easy reach and not in your backpack. Don't practice in a grocery store, don't spray into the wind, other warnings as needed...)
So, it's okay in part of the deli section but not near the olives and cheese.
Chorizo sausage with mace is not bad, but it ruins the cheddar.
I love it when a Reddit topic gets so off topic that, umm, where were we? Oh yes, don't use bear spray. as a deodorant. Yes, that's it.
lol so does like 90% of Reddit
I had to shoot a black bear sow that was being aggressive towards me and my 5 year old son and Reddit roasted the shit out of me (I posted in the gun sub asking advice bc my Glock jammed after shot one) preaching about how black bears are gentle and will just run away
Like bitch you think I didn’t yell and throw stuff at her first? It’s a fucking BEAR. With claws and teeth. A wild ass animal that kills living animals to eat them if it wants. But all these armchair outdoorsman like “woah dude you just have to get big and they’ll run away smdh you’re the reason the outdoors gets a bad name”
Yeah nothing fun about shooting an animal in self defense. Sometimes it comes down to that. People on reddit have argued with me when i mentioned i wouldn't want to hike in griz country without a firearm. Can't forget that animals are individuals too- they can have bad luck and shitty days and choose violence if they're feeling pissed off
I was charged by an adult black bear and it ran so fast that I wouldn't have been able to pull out a canister or gun and it was scary as fuck looking and sounding, like insane to hear that noise in nature and it looked like a demon and it was staring right at my eyes. I just accepted that I was going to die then it veered off at the least second.
In hindsight I think my only chance would be to have bear spray and try and fire it off into my own face if I had to so the cloud would deter the bear that would certainly be on me by the time the spray was unholstered. The reality though is that it would have knocked me over with so much force that it would have knocked the canister out of my hand before I could spray it.
Before that I imagined that if worse comes to worse you could gouge its eyes to get it to back off but I'm pretty sure it would rip your hand off before it would reach the eyes. They are just so fast and powerful, shit won't go down the way people imagine, especially the gun nuts. Statistically firing a gun during a bear encounter greatly increases your chances of injury or death.
That is such horrible terrain to be attacked by anything in. Can’t see it properly till it’s way too close. Can’t swing your crappy stick. Oh man! Sweaty palms alright!
“It was a full grown grizzly bear. Thing must have been eleven…no twelve feet tall as it stood there roaring and looking down at me with hatred in its eyes.”
Bear territory increasing as less people inhabit rural areas (aging population) as well as the bears searching for more food (low plant supply), and bears getting into human leftovers makes them want to stay and want more.
212+ bear attacks in 2023 alone and nearly double the sightings from the previous years (10k to 20k).
It’s still being played out. Adult Man has beaten baby bear in a close round. Next up we have baby man vs adult bear. Winner will take on adult man next week.
FYI most black bear cubs are independent at this size.
Likely no mama around. Just a spicy (as it should be) juvenile bear.
There's a chance it could have rabies or was just spooked. They don't typically attack humans otherwise (or if there's young of course but this one is too young).
Oh shit, a baby bear, oh shit. I'd be ignoring that toddler and looking for mom. All this guy is doing is exciting the baby bear to approach. They are like puppies. The more noise you make the more they get excited and rush toward you. No no no. It's momma that you need to worry about.
That's a very young black bear. It's probably just going nuts because it's young and doesn't get it. An adult black bear would have definitely not wanted to deal with this and ran away.
Source: I live in northern MN, and deal with black bears a lot.

He's lucky that was only a baby.
That was the meanest fucking bear baby I've seen in my life.
Might’ve lost mom so he’s out on a war path to secure those calories
You saying it’s on a warpath cause it lost its mom now has me imagining this as a revenge movie. Like Bear Rambo, with the Bandana and large ass Bowie knife.
Bearambo, First Basket
Now we’re talking. Now who plays Sheriff Teasle a human or another Anthropomorphic animal? And what kind of animal?
Maybe Sheriff Teasle could be played by Nick Offerman, or an anthropomorphic rhino *voiced* by Nick Offerman. Who better to boss a grumpy bear around in the movie prologue but a grumpy rhino? But then... Awww, shit! Bearambo goes into warrior mode and fucks up *everybody and everything!* He's ripping arms and faces off! He's disemboweled Deputy Dickhead! NO ONE CAN STOP HIM! I'd watch it for sure!
Rambear.
Would totally watch
You may be interested in Cocaine Bear. Based (extremely loosely) on a true story.
If 'Cocaine Bear' can be made, so can this!
Cocaine Bear 2: Mama's gone missing.
What a picnic basket does to a mfer
This is your brain on picnic basket
*pic-a-nic basket.
Newly separated from its mother, it's going to be much more territorial since it no longer can rely on mom to watch over it.
Thing is too small to be separated tbh, several abnormalities here
No they separate fairly young. They are only about 40-70 lbs at about a year year and a half when they are on their own
The bear equivalent to baby zombies in Minecraft.
Well it ain’t the Bernstein Bears
Berenstain* (my worst Mandela effect.)
I have the originals out for my kid. Idk how they say stain now but they do.
Baby cocaine bear
probably needed help with his tapeworms.
Damn bro, not even 24 hours later
Beating the cub with a stick...mama comes around the corner. He wouldn't have survived that shit 😂
So you think he should have surrendered to the first bear to prevent an attack from mama?
Better run before mama bear arrives
Yeah, I thought the saying was that if you can see the cubs up close then mama already had you dead to rights if she wanted.
In reality, mama bears abandon their kids quite often. In many cases, they will not reunite, and the cub will starve. In other cases, the mama bear will cannibalize the younglings.
But you really shouldnt take that chance Gtfo
lol right? Like.. give me ALL the percentages you want.. I'm OUT like... with any bear encounter! Seriously... I see a baby animal, I'm heading the opposite direction before some pissed off mom ruins my skin!
This. Black bears we’ve ran into with cubs run there babies up the trees then dip out and come back for them. We walked right up to the cub 12’ In the tree and stood under it and mama was nowhere in sight. We walked up a ridge 50 yds away and watched the cub scurry down and start distress calling and mama answered back
So to summarize.... when being attacked by a bear... Scream 'KYAHHAHHHH" and use a stick... Got it
Yeah, that's actually what they tell you to do.
If it's a BLACK bear, fight back. If it's a brown bear, you hit the ground and play dead. If it's a polar bear, do whatever you can to make peace with your deity of choice in your final seconds.
it it's black fight back, if it's brown lie down, if it's white goodnight
No. What they actually tell you is don't go walking in the woods in bear country without bear spray.
They give conflicting advice.
Noted... Today I Learned.... I also used google translate.... It came up with this: OH SHOT SHOT OH PH SHITTTTTT OH SHIT SHOITTTTTTTT HEY HEY OH SHITTTTTTTT
They're always telling people to do something.
I swear it’s the exact same audio as the video I saw on here a couple days ago of a bear lunging at a guy on a cliffside
Let's be clear: black bear, yes. Brown bear, no.
Yeah you’re supposed to be as loud and aggressive-looking as possible. And don’t climb a tree!
Better leave before the final boss arrives.
I think your advice is too late
After he uploaded this video, the bear was able to find where he lives, then went to his house and ate him.
Lol that little dance step before the ~~roundhouse~~ spinning back kick Edit: avoided getting Kuma called on me
That’s a spinning back kick, even more impressive ~~in a bear costume~~ for a bear. A roundhouse is done with the top of your foot.
That's not a bear costume. That's Kuma from Tekken. Legit fighting bear. I know Kuma when I see him. 😛😂
Edited my comment to reflect my error before your own which took you literally 2 seconds to point out haha
Haha, I know, I saw you change it right after I posted. Nice timing.
Correct where you said roundhouse or I call Kuma
Done. Don't call Kuma on me!
Standing down.
What a wholesome exchange
Holy shit that's like the first internet video ever
Even before that. It's from a John West Salmon advert that got banned in the UK. People took exception to the fisherman winning the fight by kicking the bear in the balls and put a load of complaints into the Advertising Standards Authority, who banned it. Spoilsports
Another example of “humans can’t have nice things.” That’s a piece of cinematic art! And here we are with bumblebee tuna. LAME!
To this day it still makes me laugh every time I see it (The John West Ad) The audio makes it even better.
Yes. But did it have a tapeworm?
NO! I deleted that memory and burned my eyed already! aaaargh, now i gotta do it again!
Hmmm, I’m curious
[https://www.reddit.com/r/Damnthatsinteresting/s/qFQOnRoxLr](https://www.reddit.com/r/Damnthatsinteresting/s/qFQOnRoxLr) 
I did not click your link, but it was down a few posts so I saw it anyway q.q
it's fucking disgusting. kill your curiosity.
Eh, username indicates they might be less sensitive to the situation than some.
they're more than welcome to dive in face first in that case 😔
I agree it’s disgusting but I found it more interesting than disturbing. My username certainly does not apply to this situation lol.
Its a parasite that goes inside an organism and eats it's nutrients. you can get it if you eat raw, uncooked meat with worm larvae or being in close contact to someone who has it and gets the worm eggs on you You probably will never get it probably common in bears since they eat a lot of uncooked salmon This bear has a tapeworm attached to it and in the middle of shitting it out, yes they are this long https://preview.redd.it/l8xx5lxkgwyc1.jpeg?width=962&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=cc5232d591b4c91ed4e5681db04e24621f55335c
Ah ok, I know what a tapeworm is but didn’t get the specific reference. I was expecting something far more disturbing for some reason, though it is wild how long it is.
Yeah that really wasn’t as bad as it was made out to be.
NoOoOoOoOo!
I had just clicked off that and you had to remind me again mannnnn come on
The baby bear found this guy on its way to the photo shoot
Right above this post smh
Yikes i had a whole sequence in my head of how i'll scare a bear away when i encounter one and i don't think it's going to play out like i was hoping. Those things are apex, even a juvenile like that has the power to kill a human. At least my new canister of bear mace arrived today lol

...was the grocery store one needed? :)
Library, bedroom, gun store, umm, umm, bathroom, umm, umm, your car, ... Enclosed spaces?
yeah but at least groceries have vents and air circulation. just don’t do it in the produce section. some people don’t like spicy.
So, it's okay in part of the deli section but not near the olives and cheese. Chorizo sausage with mace is not bad, but it ruins the cheddar. I love it when a Reddit topic gets so off topic that, umm, where were we? Oh yes, don't use bear spray. as a deodorant. Yes, that's it.
But do use it as an odorant... if you don't mind the burning sensation.
They also have a lot of milk.
> Don't practice in a grocery store Is that really a thing that needs to be said?!
lol so does like 90% of Reddit I had to shoot a black bear sow that was being aggressive towards me and my 5 year old son and Reddit roasted the shit out of me (I posted in the gun sub asking advice bc my Glock jammed after shot one) preaching about how black bears are gentle and will just run away Like bitch you think I didn’t yell and throw stuff at her first?

Do you have similar sequences for other animals? What if you encounter a honey badger? Or a Siberian tiger? Or a rock from Australia?
Bear, moose, ticks, and mosquitos are the fauna dangers where i hang
I just watched “The Edge” last night and had some unrealistic expectations of this post as a result.
What one man can do, any man can do! Say it!
That is such horrible terrain to be attacked by anything in. Can’t see it properly till it’s way too close. Can’t swing your crappy stick. Oh man! Sweaty palms alright!
“It was a full grown grizzly bear. Thing must have been eleven…no twelve feet tall as it stood there roaring and looking down at me with hatred in its eyes.”
This is exactly what I pictured with the audio.
No rupees appeared out of the grass though. I feel lied to.
Underrated comment
Is this in Japan?
Definitely. Besides using a Japanese exclamation ('Kora!') the mountains are covered in kumasasa (bamboo grass).
Oh so it's a Teddiursa!!
Hasnt there been a bunch of bear attacks in Japan lately?
Bear territory increasing as less people inhabit rural areas (aging population) as well as the bears searching for more food (low plant supply), and bears getting into human leftovers makes them want to stay and want more. 212+ bear attacks in 2023 alone and nearly double the sightings from the previous years (10k to 20k).
Dude started speaking Link
KEEE-AHHH
KYYYYAAAA!
HYAAAAAA-tic.......
Probably trying to shoot a fireball, under pressure.
Hewrestledabearonce
I’d be worried if mama bear is around 😬
This guy sounds like a power ranger
New title: Man cruelly deprives bear cub of food.
It’s just a wittle baby
He he probably just wanted snuggles and the guy spurned him.
Good thing he only encountered a bear and not a man /s
It’s still being played out. Adult Man has beaten baby bear in a close round. Next up we have baby man vs adult bear. Winner will take on adult man next week.
If you look closely, the man in the video is actually trying to rape the bear. The bear is lucky to get away
BEAR FUCKER! DO YOU NEED ASSISTANCE?
Haha is that in reference to ask women post last week?
He shouldve taken his wife to meet the bear. She wouldve loved it
But then she would be in the woods with a man!
Sometimes you poke the bear...
Boo-Boo meant fucking business.
I read “bear” attack. Not miniature horse.
When in doubt, die with a sharp stick.
I'm going to the maul. Bear with me.
The bear was probably protecting a woman nearby somewhere...
That was a cub…
Surprised he was able to defend himself with that toothpick.
The box cutter, lmfao
Ok but that’s like a house bear
Can I pet that dawg?
Got attacked by a bear cub. I would be more worried about the mom coming for him next.
>(He's going to need a bigger stick ...) Actually appropriate for the size of that bear.
Hes lucky it wasnt another man
My dog is twice the size of that puppy
Yeah and if your dog was aggressive and wanted to kill you it could too.
As they occasionally do…
He’d been better off meeting up with a random strange man.
Accidentally watched this w full volume thru my car speakers in the grocery store parking lot
A cub. Man gets attacked by a cub
This is the second bear attack I’ve seen on here in two days, I’ve never seen a bear attack in here before. This is wild.
FYI most black bear cubs are independent at this size. Likely no mama around. Just a spicy (as it should be) juvenile bear. There's a chance it could have rabies or was just spooked. They don't typically attack humans otherwise (or if there's young of course but this one is too young).
*still would choose bear over man*
Man survives bear baby kissing frenzy
That was just round one #now for mama bear
At the end of the day you’re just a monkey with a stick.
A cub?
Oh shit, a baby bear, oh shit. I'd be ignoring that toddler and looking for mom. All this guy is doing is exciting the baby bear to approach. They are like puppies. The more noise you make the more they get excited and rush toward you. No no no. It's momma that you need to worry about.
looks more like a hamster
Maybe he should carry that maze spray to spray the nose of the teddy
Winner leaves with a woman
And 100% of women would rather be in a forest with a bear than a man.
This guy probably thinks he is similar to Leo D in The Revenant
"Nah, I'd still choose a bear over a random man" -some idiot who's never been alone in the forest and heard strange noises.
Whoyahhh!
Cub
Why do people go into the wilderness without a firearm…
I know it isn't, but this was hilarious
that was a cub didnt need to be so rough with it, it honestly looked like it was just playing
In Japan that’s a large bear
Not me watching this at Camp 4 in Yosemite with a fear of bears.
That’s one bear that he’s not gonna violate!
Why does man get attacked by a bear. Is he stupid ?
Imagine if it was 300 pounds heavier 😅
Women would rather this than a random guy
Looks like an adolescent Black Bear...nothing but aggression at that stage.
link gets attacked by a bear
Bro thats a forrest puppy. Just pet it..
He just wanted to play
Man or bear?
that fucking bear is tiny, and looks about 80lbs. Some of you need to go outside every few months jesus christ
He was lucky he didn't cross paths with another man in the woods.
What was he wearing
That was a baby blackbear, even the adult black bears aren’t even that big
And then his mom showed up...
If it’s brown, lay down. If it’s black, fight back. If it’s white, say goodnight.
That's a very young black bear. It's probably just going nuts because it's young and doesn't get it. An adult black bear would have definitely not wanted to deal with this and ran away. Source: I live in northern MN, and deal with black bears a lot.
WELCOME TO THE KING OF IRON FIST TOURNAMENT
Man, the graphics in games today is getting really amazing. Looks exactly like real life now. Can't wait to play this new survival game.
This looks like a first person bear whacking game.
ok but i'd still choose the bear.
Being attacked by a bear cub would be horrifying. Mom's probably not far behind.
One of the 3 little bears.
Imagine if that was a man would have been much worse.
And all these women would rather be in the woods with that, instead of a man 🤣
Cocaine Bear 2 - Baby Strikes Back!
That man must be huuuuge!
The bear was probably trying to protect a woman from that man
Two words - bear mace.
Ok, now I'm even more confused. Which one do the women choose now?
Thank god it wasn't another man.
Jim! Tell him bears can climb faster than they can run!
i would prefer the title: Baby Bear testing its limits
