I was walking on a deer path one winter and stepped on a black bear that was hibernating under a snow drift. God darn that was terrifying

[susanmcewan]

This woman was able to educate me about really intricate stuff about hibernation in a matter of a few minutes! I'd have loved to see her interviewed for an hour!

Dragging a bear out of a den does nothing to hurt them. They actually fight with each other for survival and canabalize each other in a much more violent way than you can ever imagine. They are extremely tough animals.

Doesn't sound very nice waking up an animal hibernating in deep sleep

[lyndaaloo]

Why are they interrupting that bear when it's hibernating? D;

did they... snatched the bear out of it's den? that just triggered me

edit: ok so i see others mentioning it as well

[AprendizDeLoQueToca]

You don't bother a bear "in the name of science" c'mon now. Let him sleep!

[brendaechols]

To drag him out of hibernation. Thats mean.

[nonogimme]

i screamed at the way they dragged the bear by its leg out of the den .LOL savage

[essenceofnothingness]

I admire bears so much. It's my favorite animal.

[epixdevo]

Why don't we hibernate as humans is the real question

[Steamer]

The Bear is me when I was a child and the scientists are the fuckers who wake me up for school.

Imagine a stranger pulling you out your bed just to take a selfie

[dorrin]

Bear 1: Don't say it! Don't you DARE say-
Bear 2: Let's hibernate! I find Winter to be... unBEARable!! Haha!!
Bear 1: I hate you so much...

[mahamrampage]

Learned more here than in school but why tf did you drag him out like that. That's just savage 😡

[JcDizon]

How is the chipmunk going to leave the tunnel once spring comes?

[shaunbang]

Do bears in zoos just have hibernation times where they’re just sleeping in the zoos?

[enzocarle]

That's why I don't blame bears when they attack humans!

[radcat]

WHY WAS I TAUGHT WHEN I WAS A KOD THAT BEAR SLEEP FOR 6 MONTHS WHEN THEY HIBERNATE

[ConstableHandsy]

He looks so cosy ! Leave him in peace.
