[@taylorm771]

Black bears have a kinder demeanor than most bears! Grew up around them. They're like the dogs of the bear world. Pit bulls, but dogs nonetheless. Rarely do black bears attack humans not as defensive action. If you get too close to their cubs or corner them, they'll act accordingly. But give them space, they'll just curiously sniff around and go about their business. Sometimes they'll waddle up to your campsite, seeing if you have food, but they don't see you as food (unless you are a salmon (are you a salmon? (how did you learn to use a computer???))) If one approaches you in the wild - e.g. hiking - stand up tall, arms up, make loud noises and leave the area in a calm but expeditious manner. DO NOT MAKE EYE CONTACT. This is a sign of aggression across all species, but especially bears. Especially grizzlies. Grizzlies are godless, marauding killing machines. Do not trust grizzlies. Do not let them borrow money. They will not pay you back.

Just adorable, I’m sure it was heartbreaking releasing the adorable bears to the wild 😔, but it was the right thing to do. I truly admire and respect people like this. The ones that protect and care about animals well being!!! God bless them all, God please protect and keep safe these beautiful beings 🙏🙏🙏

[@miltonmoore8369]

TRUTH BE TOLD, THEY WOULD HAVE BEEN INFINITELY SAFER WHERE THEY WERE. NOW THEY HAVE TO KILL FOR THEIR FOOD, FEND OFF WOLF PACKS AND THE BITTER COLD, HOPE THEY DON'T GET CAUGHT UP IN A FOREST FIRE OR GET SHOT BY A TROPHY HUNTER, ET. AL. NOTHING WRONG WITH HAVING "WILDLIFE" IN PROTECTIVE ENVIRONMENTS WHERE THEY CAN REPRODUCE IN RELATIVE EASE TO INSURE THE PERPETUATION OF THEIR SPECIES. RESPECTFULLY.

[@sanchirdavaadorj9492]

@@miltonmoore8369 ok, by your logic we need to domesticate all animals and keep them "safe". Some animals thrive off better in the wild, especially bears and lions, they can kill you with just one big stomp. Whales can also kill you by screaming if you're close enough. So real truth be told, don't keep wild animals, as small as a stoat or as pathetic as a deer.

There is a way they can cuddle the baby bear if they invested in a real looking bear suit pretending to be a momma bear then they can cuddle the baby so much since it will be comfortable with bears and not humans.

Yes, and that is what matters. Who knows, the Mama may have been like Jochbed in the Bible and even though the Pharoah's daughter took her son Moses from the river, Moses' own Mother, Jochbed was paid to raise her own son by the Egyptians. Maybe Casper & Dudley ran into their own Mama's in the wild. That's my prayer 🙏🙏🙏

For everyone who thinks animals don't feel, or have emotional bonds, they DO! Granted once they reach the "BIG" STAGE when they can eat you, things change. Same with all wild animals. As babies they are adorable and "NEED" us to survive. Once they become adults, instincts can kick in and then ?? Your love for these babies is so awesome! I'd do the same exact thing if I was in the same position. I tried to save a baby bird as a child, but it died, and the "guilt" I felt as a little kid was tough. But seeing these Dodo videos, seeing how we can and do make a difference! Shows me there are decent people who still care for and love animals, ALL ANIMALS!

[@Todestuete]

There are plenty of adult animals like bears and lions that still like the humans that raised them. Obviously still danger involved but that bond does persist.

[@corbeau-_-]

the people who don't think about animal emotion are very unlikely to read your bit and if they do they will be in denial ;) Preach to the choir!

[@maryg.3957]

What kicks in is hunger, mostly, to cause and then teach that aggression. and of course adult instincts like you noted too.
