how is she a good mama? seems to me she did her best to drown the cubs.

Becky Lawler they occasionally try to eat them, if that counts?

Gusty Stambaugh oh no! That's no good! 😬

No they dont. After he mates w the mom. Hes gone.

No such thing as a loving Papa Bear lol

Papa bear was a rolling stone

This was taken at Katmai National Park. The people are on an observation platform built specifically for the purpose of viewing bears. She isn't gathering them up tot take them away from people. She purposefully brought them there so she could fish, and completely ignores the people. The reason she had to fish the misbehaving cub out of the waterfall is that he was naughty, and jumped in because he got bored. Then a larger bear charged the cub, and she jumped off the falls, smacked him in the face, and rescued her cub. After rescuing her cub, she continued to fish, not bothered by the people at all.

Looks to me like you made a bunch of false assumptions and got told off politely even though you were very rude. Maybe you can learn from that.

@@GGStambaugh he learned you NEVER EVER mess with mama bear whether animal or human! She will swat you down like a house fly!😂

Yes! I was just thinking that too. Alot of people just don't know what's happening. It's not taught until you've studied up on animal behavior. Yes, I was pretty sad watching. The best I can do to explain it is, turn off the sound and really watch, especially the nervousness concerning her surroundings 🙏😢 It doesn't matter that's there's a place for people to view, it was placed way to close. Even on a safari if your a bit to close be quiet. I understand how things looked to the kind gentleman, but that also means he's assuming what happened from a human perspective only. Research is warranted to understand animals.🙏❤️

The number of people there are posting lectures and warnings about bears when they clearly know sweet F.A. is astonishing.

Adorable through a zoom lens. Scary in real life.

I’m sorry, I’m on the last day of my covid quarantine and I’ve taken up day drinking. I love bears and I wish them the best. Are they not half retarded tho? I mean seriously, once your realize just how small their brains are you really get the bigger picture of just how stupid grizzly bears are. God did us a favor because if these snarling mutts could form a coherent thought who knows how dangerous they could actually be. You never hear of a grizzly bear walking into a city and causing havoc, it’s always some dumbass who goes into bear country without a gun or bear spray like ole timmy treadright. Imagine if bears put together the idea of exacting their revenge on humans, we’d be fucked. Imagine if they developed a larger brain and learned to hunt as a group like pack animals, we’d be fucked. Thank you for coming to my ted talk and remember to always tell your nearest grizzly bear that it is an idiot. We love it and think that it’s cute and cool but it’s a fucking peanut brain having child waterboarding mouth breathing mutt.

Humans aren't as smart neither. I seen many human mother's doing stupid shit.
