Amazing russian bear!

i am astonished how logical or rational this bear seems to be,,, this just blows my mind,,,
hope i can get the vid working,,,

The bear can play the horn better than I can, and it can use the Hula Hoop better than I can. I just can't bear the humiliation.

Amazing, for sure! !

I found myself being afraid for the trainer and feeling very sorry for the bear at times, though... I think one day, we'll read about this guy's death by bear...

Oh, I don't mean anything against his training techniques or the bear's condition... It's just that bears are wild animals and wild animals sometimes "turn" on their owners. It's not a dog. It's not domesticated.

That was cool but weird at the same time. That bear was like a person, so strange. And like someone above me said they felt sorry for the bear at times, I did as well. It was just odd to me, it didnt seem right, but it was neat to watch. If that even makes sense. Meh...

Anyway, my hubby had sent me that video the other day but I never watched it...hehe. Now I can say, I I watched that video..haha.

Have a nice day

of course,,, but what if...... the wolf was domesticated also....
i think this could be done with other animals too,,,, and it looks and acts so kindly and gentle...
(until its chewing the trainers head)

Yes, the wolf was domesticated over MANY years and generations to become sweet doggies like the one you see in my avatar. The way the bear grabbed the man around the neck just scares me. I have a huge respect (and an appropriate level of fear) of wild animals and animals in general.

but i was thinking... why not start now the domestication, for the future? that would be so cool...

...and for the best buddies hug,,, man, that looked dangerous...

That's a man in a bear costume!! Just kidding, pretty intelligent bear especially the hoola hoop trick. I was surprised the chair was able to hold that 500 lb bear! Thanks for sharing!

Here you go! Love it! How many times have I heard that bears are intelligent, of we only took the time to find out. This man is clearly trusted and so is the bear in this case, although I somehow think he doesn't like playing the tin horn. Maybe he'd prefer a guitar.

WOW
thats is impressive and inspiring
its said that ages past man and bear had close relations in Russ
thanks
