Making Bears ‘Family’ Sets Everybody Up For Maiming, Death
Cowboy State Daily | August 19, 2024 | Mark HeinzA social media video depicting people “adopting” bears and raising them as pets is terrible idea, experts told Cowboy State Daily. They are just setting themselves up to be mauled, they said.
A popular social media video that opens with a bear showing up at a family’s front door, set to a sappy love song with cute emojis littered throughout is put out there as a heartwarming tale of nature communing with humans.
What the video really shows is a level of ignorance and interaction with one of the planet’s apex predators that’s really just incredibly stupid, wildlife experts told Cowboy State Daily.
Stupid, and dangerous — for bears and people alike — they said.
At one point, what appears to be mature black bear is suddenly standing in a family’s doorway, practically inside their front room.
“That’s not a place you ever want to be,” said Colorado Parks & Wildlife Northeast region spokeswoman Kara Van Hoose.
Does a bear squat in your Hoose?
If television has ever taught me anything, it’s that when a bear shows up you just surrender the picnic basket…
When they finally leave, they get stuck in the front door until they slim down. It takes a few days.
MUH TUNA!!!!
Good Reasons Not To Let a Bear Into Your House…
they are really vampires.
… bears never wipe their feet and they have no litter box skills.
Because they also S*** in other places, not just the woods.
…because Imma Cowboys Fan not a Bears Fan.
