While out in the Yukon's backcountry, I had an incredible experience witnessing a grizzly bear sow chasing a dozen goats along a cliff face. For over ten minutes the bear was on a tear after these goats, at one point getting within just 10 or 15 yards of a group of goats.

Thanks so much for sharing this unique video with us. As you said, a person could hunt a lifetime in the mountains and never see that. Very cool stuff there!

[@KingMBK11]

Appreciated watching your adventure brother

Awesome capture man! Truly a blessing to witness that.

[@GregMcHalesWildYukon]

It was a blessing!

[@lesharrington4174]

I have seen black bears in the Coast Range, near Juneau, stalking mountain goat Kids in the spring time. In that area the brown (grizzly) bears control the salmon streams in the lowlands, so black bears are forced to work harder for protein. The bears I observed hunting were relying on stealth, but this sow here hasn't learned that lesson, yet! Great footage of this encounter!

[@GregMcHalesWildYukon]

When stealth doesn't work, sprinting is a viable option!

[@WildlifeOnVideo]

Fantastic Footage Greg! We've witnessed this with a Black Bear, but not as amazing as this. Thank you for sharing.

[@GregMcHalesWildYukon]

Thanks for watching!

[@furtfurt]

This is amazing. The power and agility of both sets of animals to run up, along and down the cliff face. That's like running up and down a massive ladder at breakneck speed. I'm amazed by the natural drive to endure and survive. I'm just shaking my head. Thank you for sharing this. I'm sure it can never compare to being their firsthand. But still amazing.

[@GregMcHalesWildYukon]

Thank you! Yes, watching it live was something else!

[@cdhenry66]

That bear must have been really hungry ! Thanks for sharing that awesome footage.

That was worth the price of admission! very cool to catch that on camera and share it with others

We were very lucky to get this. Too bad we were still running an older camera at the time!

Hey James, absolutely. We haven't done a lot of dropping since then, but I think flagging tape will be involved in the next one.

Haha touche!

[@dthomason119]

Bear got a better chance winning the lottery then catching those Goats on their terrain.

[@GregMcHalesWildYukon]

We saw some bear dung next to where we camped that was good evidence of a goat meeting its demise.

[@dthomason119]

@@GregMcHalesWildYukon How could you tell it was goat s/he ate or even that the animal was alive when it was consumed by the bear(s)?

[@GregMcHalesWildYukon]

@@dthomason119 When you see a bear scat-shaped pile of goat hair, there's no doubt! In theory it could have been wolf perhaps, but it was definitely more like bear scat, if I recall correctly.

[@qidongxu7339]

Luckily the bear was on the other side of the valley. What if the bear was on this side of the valley, will Greg be able to escape?

[@GregMcHalesWildYukon]

It would have been a more exciting video, I can promise you that. Check out my goat hunt video from Season 1. We thought we had a bear in close proximity.

[@peterwalker1543]

That’s so cool I’ve witness a grizzly chasing a billy once.

You can win that game a bunch of times but can only lose once

[@GregMcHalesWildYukon]

If you're a bear, you can win or lose many times! I saw bear scat with goat hair in it, so not all of them are lucky all the time.

[@fredeschen3783]

Why the sock on your scope?

[@GregMcHalesWildYukon]

I kept it on there instead of a neoprene case or some other protection.

aren't you lucky you are on the other mountain !! lol

What spotting scope do you use ?

[@cecilwhite1647]

The goat has the advantage but the bear got the stamina.

[@shrujanamsyama9940]

Goats have much higher stamina than a bear

[@GregMcHalesWildYukon]

That sow certainly was no slouch! She chased them for about 10 minutes.

[@danni1993]

Mama bear: pay attention children...THIS is how it's done. Mama bear...head down...walk of shame back up the mountain.

[@underrated7725]

That was cool to see but its gon be hard for the grizzly to catch one of them goats. They probably know all the short cuts around those mountains. Lol

[@GregMcHalesWildYukon]

We saw some bear dung with goat hair where we camped, so they must catch them now and again!

[@louielouiepks]

Bear wanting one of those goats to fall.

[@GregMcHalesWildYukon]

I think that's how they like to roll, but the goats had it under control!

[@dbx1233]

The only thing cooler, would have been seeing the bear catch one of the goats.

[@GregMcHalesWildYukon]

That would have been unreal!

[@LuckySawdust]

Bear: Any last words? Goat: Yeah, but you probably won't make it long enough to hear them.

[@GregMcHalesWildYukon]

Ha!

[@davidgivins1685]

Everything is not about hunger. The bear was actually excerising unlike so many people like myself now!😆🤣😂😣😣😥😉😏😋🤔

Her FitBit would have been impressed!

[@frederick6008]

Good use for finger gloves

[@msblue1003]

Silly bear - it won't catch mountain goats on their mountains... Maybe this bear in the past found some goat dead of old age and was thinking it would be easy to catch goats.

[@GregMcHalesWildYukon]

Actually, we slept right on top of bear scat that was 100% goat fleece. 😳

[@GregMcHalesWildYukon]

It was humbling to see her power and energy in action like that! The goats kept it calm, but I did see bear skat with goat hair an hour or so later, so she gets them sometimes.
