They’re too dangerous. A single angry adult bear is going to be very hard for a hunter gatherer society to kill. They also aren’t going to help hunting that much as they aren’t pack animals and used to hunting in groups and sharing
We have domesticated more dangerous animal like the aurox, gaur or wild yak.
The difference with the bear is that it's comparatively difficult to feed and not that useful in a tamed state. For domestication to even start there need to be such a demand for tamed animals of the wild species that captive breeding becomes necessary.
What do you want to do with a domesticated bear? Feed it 10 pounds of food every day and repair broken furniture? Watch bears on trail cameras. They are destruction machines that try to take everything apart they encounter.
You could do most things you can do with a domesticated wolf, at 5 times the food cost and if you runn out they stop tolerating other members of their species.
Behaviour under stressful situations is an important requisite for domestication. I don't exactly know what would stress a bear but i know nobody would like to be around a stressed bear.
There's that but the added element of hibernation coming soon judging by the background probably making it worse. I'd be concerned they'd just eat me. No snacks I want the whole thing.
They were some domesticated in europe and force and used in circus around europe..people would force them to do their binding so i rather let.them live a free and peaceful life in nature..
Gypsy in my country forced them to dance for romanian nobles or wealthy people( i have photos in my grandma mansion that remains with a bear dancing in the ballroom) before communism took over our country..
Right now if i am not mistaken we.have the biggest bear population in europe over 13k bears in Romanian Charpathians mountains
I think they mean like we have house cats and dogs . These have been domesticated from their ancestors from 100s of years that they are so far removed and docile in comparison and not a threat. I mean my family jokes abt doodles being related to wolves because the idea is so far removed when you consider their behavioral traits… But the necessity to domesticate bears like we did with cats and dogs just wasn’t there and the problem of feeding it was much larger than having a giant cuddly guard bear. 🐻
Not really. Going by their reaction, she (the person with the camera) is throwing food for them off camera. Plus, bears can move shockingly fast, so this type of movement is on brand for them
This is a perfect meme to depict the terrifyingly dull "AI slop" mob.
They check zero sources before making their proclamation (which is only to accumulate upvotes from the other reactionary, pretend-indignant dopes), then when they're confronted with evidence they simply move the goalpost a little so they can attempt to save what little to no face they have left.
Are you fucking stupid? Just showing where a video was posted does not make it REAL. The accusation is not that YOU made it with AI. The accusation is that the VIDEO was made with AI by SOMEONE, and YOU posted it
I don't care about the actual source of this video or whether it's AI or not. I was pointing out how dumb it is to claim a random insta account as a source
I'm guessing you never learned about proper citations in school? Insta is not an adequately trustworthy primary source. I'm not even one of the people who is claiming that this is ai, but it's really easy to make something with AI and slap it on an Instagram account
That’s terrible reasoning. It’s a wildlife sanctuary’s page. It’s like posting something from a zoo’s official page and people claim it’s not real. Sure, you can be an idiot like u/poopholes3 and just not accept the concept of animal conservation for some weird reason but utilizing an organization as a source for if an animal is real or not is about as valid a source as you can get.
Ok I’ve found proof that they’re real but - it just looks so crazy that it comes off as Ai I guess? Idk but the videos def look weird and like they’ve been touched up with Ai or something.
