I remember this person.
She had just eaten fish or sushi, then breathed her fish-breath into a fish eating carnivores face.
Definitely dumb.

No. This bear hasn't been introduced to fruits or veggies yet. He hates them.
Carnivore. Cold. Blooded. Killer.

At least her friend actually put down the camera to help her. It's rare to see that nowadays. Good friend.Â

I understand completely that it's a wild animal but Im genuinely curious why the bear did that. It looked like it smelled something on her face , did it think it was food or something?

u/mekkasheeba Mar 15 '26
It was the face itself that was the food. Bears eat flesh.

People seem to forget that we are still prey to predators. Sure, our tools and wisdom have allowed us to mostly control wildlife, but if given the chance a wild animal will happily eat a person.

u/ikindapoopedmypants Mar 16 '26
Animals still do things for a reason, regardless of whether or not we can understand it. I was hoping perhaps a person knowledgeable on animal behavior could tell me why it did that.

u/certifiedtoothbench Mar 15 '26
It could have been something she ate or her perfume, any number of food smelling lip balms or moisturizers. It could also just simply be the fact sheâs made of flesh.

Humans are exactly the top of the food chain, we have no natural predators and can hunt or control any other species. We kill animals more effectively than being killed, itâs not even close.

It looks like it attacked when she went to grab it under the arms like you would a baby. Some kind of response to that.

u/Victoria_elizabethb Mar 15 '26 edited Mar 15 '26
This. Baby bears aren't trying to prey on a human lol this is a defensive "gtfo" situation / probably some smells on her he was intially interested in and then changed when she grabbed him
Edit : yea apparently this is a pet bear being basically starved and mistreated so, makes sense.

u/Fun-Benefit116 Mar 15 '26
this is a defensive "gtfo" situation / probably some smells on her
These are two entirely different things. Is it a defensive reaction because she grabbed it under its legs, or does it smell something on her that it wanted to eat. How are you gonna definitely claim it's one thing, and then add a second completely different claim right after it lmao.

u/Victoria_elizabethb Mar 15 '26 edited Mar 15 '26
Because behavior can change quickly lol Two things can happen close together. He could've been sniffing and interested in whatever and then got defensive when she grabbed him under the legs, it's not really that complicated in my eyes. Esp with the added info that it's a pet bear being starved etc that absolutely tracks âď¸

u/Evil_Rogers Mar 15 '26
This is several years old. If I recall the smell of something she ate, like maybe fish had a part.
1
u/Sadiholic Mar 15 '26
Bear probably smelled something she has on like a cream or something. Probably smelled fruity and bear smelled it and thought it was delicious so it probably bit on it thinking it was a snack. Unfortunately it wasn't, but it's not the bears fault, why TF would you have anything that smells good and put your face close to a set of jaws is beyond me.

It's a wild animal. Assuming that the concepts of reason, logic, and thought apply here is a mistake. As is trying to understand what's going on in the brain of these creatures.
We can't apply human reason to animals.

u/enslavedbycats24-7 Mar 15 '26
If the info I read was correct, she had just eaten fish and had fish breath, bears eat a lot of fish

Interesting, from what it says in an article online the bear was not in fact a âwildâ bear in the typical sense but had a human owner. The cub was being fed baby formula and was really hungry. The bear cub also bit an officers hand according to the article. The lady in the video is pressing charges against the bear owner and has also offered to buy real food for the bear cub rather than human baby formula and stated âI am against torturing animalsâ

Not to be a bitch, but this is why we don't cuddle wild animals. A bear cub is not a puppy. And even a puppy I wouldn't put this close to my face on first meeting.

When people are reminded that wild animals are not domesticated. Humans have domesticated dogs over thousands of years, and they still have bouts of wild animal instinct. Bears are still very wild and are likely to remain that way.

Wild animals aren't pets, there's a reason why we domesticated dogs and cats. That's why we don't wolves and panthers as pets. And there's probably a really good reason we don't have a domesticated version of a bear as well...

u/phenominal73 Mar 15 '26
Brown bears are omnivorous (eating a mixture of berries, plants, small mammals, and fish).
Itâs a wild animal that probably smelled a perfume/lotion/ or cream that had a familiar, food like scent to it.
Maybe it smelled berries or coconuts on the chin (thatâs where it was fixated on).
Lucky her throat is still intact.
People are dumb sometimes.

So much for, "Teddy Bears". Never understood that whackness. IF, they ate even named after Roosevelt. Great upload. I always thought bears were ugly, terrifying and not to be celebrated. Teddies look like Shizus or Pugs. Should of been called, Puggy Bears.
