It's amazing to see such big creatures be so careful on how they get their food! Beautiful creatures and beautiful scenery!! Thanks for the video BBC!

[@davidec.4021]

When you hear something like “this animal’s sense of smell is 4/5/.. times stronger than ours” you can’t really picture it. Well, they can SMELL THE EXACT LOCATION OF CLAMS UNDER THE SAND. Wow. And that area must be filled with all sorts of smells from the tide and animals, but they can identify and isolate that one from that one clamp. Amazing.

[@notthatguy4703]

Clamps are pretty smelly. One time my 6yr old sister brought back clamps she found in cape cod on a three-hour drive back home. Good thing there weren't any grizzlies within a 200-mile radius...

[@Lubin-md4ml]

A bears nose is thousands of times more powerful than a humans, not just 5 times lol.

[@kenmasters2025]

That's nothing. Clams are stinky. Polar bears can smell a seal through 2 feet of snow

[@kdvr766]

@lolblic true its definitely not risky to be around starving animals oh forgot to mention the harsh environments. Definitely not risky. (im being sarcastic btw)

[@balltavorb]

Well I don't think a bear would eat a person but they're super territorial. It's likely they'll kill you if you're in their territory especially if they think your presence is a threat to their cubs.

[@adb8003]

lolblic okay, walk up to a hungry grizzly bear with that attitude. These aren’t pandas and they aren’t black bears. These are GRIZZLY bears.

[@noahbaldiviezo5975]

@@adb8003 even than pandas are known to screw your crap up too, and I have heard plenty occassions even in my area where people try to present themselves to black bears and the Black Bear starts whooping them.

[@adb8003]

Noah Baldiviezo I know, they’re all dangerous. Grizzlies just tend to be the most aggressive whereas pandas can be passive and black bears will usually run.

[@jurisoiri4075]

I like how the narrator tried to hide it and slowly express what they were hunting for, but it says that in the title

how the heck do they get such footage and sound?!! its like their right next to them. I mean i can even hear the breathing

[@SeanStewart88]

Supa Niaja Rise it's a known fact that even the best of nature documentaries add sound affects after filming.

[@toestastegood6817]

Sound effects.

[@nope4216]

dude the bears are fake. wake up.

[@papucimurdari]

Parabolic microphones for sound and good lenses for cameras is my guess..

[@Indipuk]

Its BBC so this must be fake news. They probabaly created these effects in their studio in London.

[@c.galindo9639]

Cool. Very great footage to see. Watching how they go through their seasonal cycles and search for different food sources to survive is really amazing stuff to see

[@kirklogeston5935]

It is amazing to see the most powerful predators on the planet use those huge claws so delicately with such precision!!!

[@trvth1s]

The most powerful terrestrial predator is their cousin the kodiac bear. Healthy polar bears and salt water crocodiles are far more powerful then either of these but those are semiaquatic

[@SA2004YG]

I'm fairly sure that would be the tiger...

[@mam241]

how was that delicate, the shells were smashed to pieces, not exactly clams on a half shell lol

[@jtn_16]

@@trvth1s Hippopotamus are stronger than all crocodiles.

[@trvth1s]

@@jtn_16 No they're not. Hippos [4000 lbs] are stronger then African crocodiles [1200lbs], they are also a little stronger then salt water crocodiles [2,200lbs] but no hippo in history was stronger the south American crocodilian purussaurus [10,300lbs].
