Grizzly bear dragging red stag into the woods
After the HuntHe's not waiting for spring for any pic-a-nic baskets, that's for sure. Speaking of shouldn't he be hibernating?
This is the equivalent of a midnight snack😂
Guess even grizzly bears need a late-night run to the fridge, except their fridge is the entire forest and sometimes it includes red stag leftovers. Gives a whole new meaning to take-out for them.
Then they wake up in the equivalent mess of falling asleep with your sandwich.
We are all one under nature.
Nah, hibernating is pretty misunderstood. It isn’t anything like what you’re taught as a kid. Bears do not actually go sleep for 5 months straight or whatever. They just go into low activity mode. Sometimes they’re asleep, but other times they’re awake and alert and just kinda chillin. Sometimes they’ll go looking for food and things. All pretty normal
More hibernation info for the curious
Thank you for the link. It was a good read
Bears will be out as long as they can find food. Most bed down by sometime in December, though I’m pretty sure it varies by habitat, species, and sex.
I'd stay awake for some sex myself.
I'm not sure you get it, but you definitely seem to be getting what you want
If I’m not mistaken, rising global temps are causing less and less bears to hibernate as long as they used to. Fun!
fewer
Hibernation has more to do with food availability than temperatures - but the latter might affect the former
Thank you!
Hibernating doesnt mean they sleep 24/7 until Spring. It means they spend less time outside, they still need food
Yeah they usually spend that time in their houses.
Actually it means they don't need food, but you're right they don't sleep 24/7 until Spring. This bear in the video is not hibernating
A lot of kids books in the U.S had that misconception that they sleep all winter. Thats y i said that
Fun fact, bears don’t hibernate. They only enter a state of light sleep
I think they're just friends play fighting
I just hope everyone is having a good time.
Are you saying that red stag is going to be ok?
He's going to be a whole lot more red that's for sure
Technically he could be a lot less than he is now
A lot of kills take place on the roads, the deers have no grip on the tar and slip
Also he’s smelling the way he wants to go to make sure there are no other bears
my guess is that it senses the person and doesn't want it's food stolen by said person. obviously no one is gonna steal a bear's food but that's not how they see it unfortunately
Didn’t even bring a pic-a-nic basket?
Bear attacks are brutal. Unlike cougars who kill you first then eat you, bears are big enough and strong enough that they just start eating you no matter how much you struggle.
There is a voice mail message on the internet of a girl crying to a mom that a bear is eating her boyfriend and everytime she tries to run the bear smacks her down and drags her back.
There was some girl (in Russia I believe) who managed to call her mom while being eaten alive by a bear.
Wow wtf…… Never heard of this before

This probably should get some exclusions for dogshit websites such as the daily fucking mail
Yeah, I’m not clicking a daily mail website no matter how crazy UFO invasion article.
Damn so saaaad.
That moment when she stopped feeling pain...
That’s probably the best resolution this story could’ve had.
With the bears having apparently left her to die, she said: 'Mum, it’s not hurting any more. I don’t feel the pain. Forgive me for everything, I love you so much.'
Omg … this is so so so so unbelievably brutal and sad. I just want to cry now … oh my …
Woof. Okay, that's enough internet for today. Thx
The story has been proven fake a million times over
Sounds unbearable
People were so scared of bears they came up with the word bear.
Arkto, Arkto, Arkto
Cautiously awaits a bear to jump through window
It's been an hour and this is u/Bremstar's last comment. I think the bears got em. RIP
I'm okay, I have 3 new bear friends now. One of them got comically stuck trying to come through, so I helped him. Luckily, I have several beds of various sizes and soups heated to different temperatures.
Yeah I've read the article it's pretty disturbing.
So did she also get eaten?
Also that reminds me of a video you can find of (I believe) a vehicle zoo thing where you drive around and the animals will be wandering around. This mother and daughter were in the Lion one and if I remember correctly, the door was unlocked and a lion dragged the daughter out. The mother came to rescue her which she succeeded in but she was killed due to her efforts
It was a tiger and in China. Mother in law killed
Yeah I saw that, tigers are way scarier than bears. I saw a video where one got into a bear enclosure at a Chinese zoo, they were some kind of smaller bears native to Asia but they weren't that small, anyways a bear was standing up on its hind legs trying to look big and scare the tiger off but the tiger just pounced it head on and grabbed it by the neck and went up a tree with it.
You should google tiger vs bear and enjoy going down the rabbit hole.
Grizzly and polar bears are larger than tigers. That wouldn’t happen to them.
Maybe a sun bear if it was that effortless?
The sun bear (Helarctos malayanus) is a species in the family Ursidae (the only species in the genus Helarctos) occurring in the tropical forests of Southeast Asia. It is the smallest bear species, standing nearly 70 cm (28 in) at the shoulder and weighing 25–65 kg (55–143 lb).
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sun_bear
Definitely not something a human would want to fight, but yeah, not much one can do against a determined adult tiger. That or it could have been an Asian black bear, which I think bottom out at the same size as the maximum size for a sun bear.
a vehicle zoo thing where you drive around and the animals will be wandering around.
After Jurassic Park, that seems like a really bad idea...
Fancy word for safari
I think the bear ate her too, it was a « famous » guy iirc
Do you mean Timothy Treadwell and his girlfriend Amie?
I read a description and apparently she kept screaming until the bear came back and killed her too.
He took his time getting and killing Timothy. I know she was unexperienced and didn't expect anything like this to happen, but it is possible there was a window to escape her disturbing faith and she missed it due to suffering a massive and loud panic attack.
It is very sad that he dragged someone else down with him in my opinion. He definitely overestimated himself (though arguably he did have decent instincts with wild animals, he should have been aware that sometimes that isn't enough. In fact I think he did at one point state that a starving or unfamiliar bear would be most dangerous to him and this one was both).
"Be still. I'm eating you next!" - The Bear, probably
There is a voice mail message on the internet of a girl crying to a mom that a bear is eating her boyfriend and everytime she tries to run the bear smacks her down and drags her back.
Is that a real story? I can't seem to find anything about it online
If you see me fighting a grizzly bear I suggest you help the fucking grizzly bear. Everybody know me.
I'd just get some popcorn, kick back, and watch that bear find out by God
Growing up was real hard on my block, cops and robbers I was never the cop.
Username checks out
Wolves and other wild dogs too. A quick kill isn't necessary unless you're an ambush predator whose prey still has all their energy.
The way it bearhandles the thing with just its jaw is terrifying quite honestly.
Lion pride gotta be pretty brutal, although faster. One of them will usually try to strangle you, but the rest of the pride is gonna start tearing you apart, probably starting between your legs.
I saw a video where a pride caught an impala, and the pride had completely stripped the body in about 15 seconds while the original lioness was still trying to suffocate it.
And on the opposite end of that, there's a video of a pride trying to kill a hippo as it runs back to the water not really seeming to give a fuck.
HIPPOBOT 9000 v 3.1 FOUND A HIPPO. 1,183,740,101 COMMENTS SEARCHED. 24,855 HIPPOS FOUND. YOUR COMMENT CONTAINS THE WORD HIPPO.
hippo
A lot of animals do that. Cats are known for sometimes waiting for their prey to finish dying.
And yet there's actually some morons who think they could possibly win a fight against a grizzly. 😆
I know so many more that think they could take a chimp their size and weight, but anyone who thinks they are fucking with a grizzly bear are just remedial af.
No human could take a chimp half their weight…
“You know where you are? You’re in the jungle, baby!”
My money would be on the chimp for sure, but I wouldn't be that categorical. The chimp is stronger and fiercer, but the weight difference means something. Also their joints aren't really built to throw punches or kicks.
Chimp wins 9/10 I guess. Maybe even 99/100. But given that there are credible accounts of humans killing more dangerous animals, it's definitely not 100%.
I read this as "chipmunk my size and weight" and it was an interesting visual. I didn't win that fight either.
I carry a 10mm and bear spray in the woods. I’m still afraid of a fuckin bear.
Could a 10mm stop a bear? How many shots?
There was a pretty good study done in the state of Alaska on effectiveness of guns against bears and it really came down to "BIB" Bullets-In-Bear not caliber. Nothing was more effective than getting mace on the bear, or secondly bullets from any caliber.
Several encounters when someone defended themselves successfully with small caliber handguns, 9mm I know of at least one bear dispatched with a .380 acp. The study even reclarified that Shotguns and long rifles over all were some of the least effective bear deterrent/defense because they were holstered and unable to be drawn in response.
there is a second study that goes into caliber a bit more but I am having trouble finding it. not exactly what I wanted but this ammoland articles cite some decent data. https://www.ammoland.com/2021/06/handgun-or-pistol-against-bear-attacks-104-cases-97-effective/#axzz84MZyzEdA
i dont understand your last sentence? could you elaborate please?
If you have a shotgun or rifle and are walking through the woods you are very likely to have it in a scabbard, backpack or something like that.
If you are fishing and have a shotgun or rifle it is likely stowed away from the water.
Guns that are stowed cannot be used for self defense.
Shotguns and long rifiles take a long time to aim and fire when holstered (i.e. put away) compared to smaller arms.
So if you get attacked, it's better to be able to react quickly (i.e. with a gun that's easy to aim and fire on short notice)
17 rounds
Could a 10mm stop a bear?
This isn't really the question. Basically any centerfire round could stop any sized bear.
As you shrink the caliber, it just become a matter of how great your aim is, until eventually your margin of error is so tiny that you'd better be able to put it through the bear's eye and into its brain. Bears have far thicker and tougher bones, hides, and muscles than people, and bear spray is often a better deterrent than most people's ability to aim under pressure.
10MM is about 1300 feet-per-second and 155-175 caliber ... I mean, I don't have the ballistic gel tests in front of me, but it seems like most people in Polar or Grizzly country are going to carry either a 45-70 lever action, a shotgun with slugs, or if it's a handgun (typically a revolver), it's at least a 44 magnum.
Of course, not all bears are created equal. If your concern is a 200-300 pound black bear (who in my experience are some of the biggest cowards in the animal kingdom) that is rather different from a 600+ pound grizzly.
Glock 20sf myself. I'd prefer to just not run into a grizzly, lol.
Bro you don’t get it when I get angry I just see red and go primal when I start swinging nothing stops me that bear gonna get taught a lesson bro
Yeah, me too, it's fucking science bro
That bear finna catch these hands bro.
I would win a boxing match against a grizzly. Once fight started grizzly would maul me which would in turn disqualify it, making me a winner by default.
The two sweetest words in the English language: de-fault! De-fault! De-fault!
Yeah there was a post on the front page earlier of a Bengal tiger roaring and I had the same thought. There's actually some stupid motherfuckers that think they could just wrestle one of these things to the ground. Bro, you would be in multiple pieces in about five seconds, better just pray they kill you before they start eating you.
You won’t understand but when the red mist descends; I think I could you know. /s
No more moronic than people who think they can cohabitate with Grizzlies
I might have a smidgin of a chance if: 1. I am part of a large group of humans who hunt chimps.
My group and I have lived a lifetime in the environment chimps reside in, meaning we live close to nature and are not sedentary.
We are there with the intent to hunt chimps for food, meaning we’ve prepped for this.
I am none of those things; ergo, I’m fucked most definitely and definitively.
There was that one guy who killed a grizzly by stuffing his fist down it's esophagus and it asphyxiated to death.
I feel like this is one of the only chances to survive a bear trying to eat you. you're going to sacrifice that limb, but you might live by making that sacrifice
Its not nice to make fun of the mentally challenged.
And yet there are morons who thinks I they could ever cuddle one.
That moron is me.
Terrifying. He just flipped over an animal that weighs several hundred pounds with his jaws and neck.
Large bears are the strongest predators on the planet. They can easily kill moose.
Idk about easily, and you gotta be specific with what kind of moose. An adult bull? Idk man. Maybe it'd kill it, but it certainly wouldn't be easy and without injury. Even fully grown bears usually go for young moose or females.
https://www.instagram.com/p/CvJJck7gL9f/?utm_source=ig_embed&utm_campaign=embed_video_watch_again
the dudes not wrong though they will easily kill calves and female moose. It is very rare they go after larger bulls.
Predators usually go for the sick and injured which helps increase the genetic fitness of the prey species. We target the fittest and healthiest, which is why as apex predators we suck for the ecosystem.
could they kill a blue whale?
That is not a grizzly bear, just an ordinary brown bear. I know that because I live in the country this video was taken. We have no grizzlies in here.
I thought grizzley was the same as brown?
Grizzlies are a sub species of brown bears - same thing with kodiak bears. So basically all grizzlies are brown bears, but not all brown bears are grizzlies.
If we’re talking about North American brown bears, brown, grizzly, and Kodiaks are all the same animal. There is an argument to be made about the Kodiak bears being a subspecies due to their prolonged genetic isolation, which the Alaska Department of Fish and Game backs.
Thanks. So which is bigger, brown or grizzley?
I believe the list goes;
Polar > Kodiak > Kamchatka Brown > Ussuri Brown > Coastal Grizzly > Grizzly > Brown > Black Bear
Note: I am not a bear authority, just spent a lot of time in Alaska as a kid. Please correct me if I’ve brought bear misinformation here.
Polar > Kodiak > Kamchatka Brown > Ussuri Brown > Coastal Grizzly > Grizzly > Brown > Black Bear
... Black Bear > Panda Bear > Koala Bear > Care Bear.
Finished it for you.
Don't forget "drop bear", and "build-a-bear"
The Black Forest gummy bear says hi
Just don't mention Haribo sugar free gummy bears 😂
Oh god, I’m well aware. Haha!
... Black Bear > Panda Bear > Koala Bear > Care Bear
...count down > 4 > 3 > 2 > 1
got it backwards. Brown is bigger than grizzly.
Grizzly bears are the smaller interior subspecies of brown bear. Grizzlies have the namesake for their lighter "grizzled" hair.
Thanks for the correction!
Scientists don't typically do the distinguishment between inland and coastal bears anymore.
Essentially all Brown bears in North America are grizzly bears with only the bears on Kodiak arguably warranting their own subspecies
Brown is bigger than grizzly.
Grizzly bears are the smaller interior subspecies of brown bear native only to North America. Grizzlies have the namesake for their lighter "grizzled" hair.
Was looking for this comment, since we don't have red deer in North America. Unless it escaped from some stupid exotics hunting ranch, a red deer wouldn't be prey to a grizzly
What we see on the video isn't even bear hunting. Just scavenging deer that was hurt from collision with car.
Where was this taken?
I have seen this video with Austria, Czech, Italy, Hungary and Romania as "the video was taken here"
Austria actually 3 different places....
It's exactly the place in the middle of all those countries--Slovakia
bear dont care. these things scare the crap out of me more than any other predator. if one ever decides to attack me i will end myself first.
as a side note, grizzly bear (type of brown bear found in US and Canada) and red deer habitats don’t overlap.
If one is close enough to decide to attack, you won’t have time to end it.
I mean... keeping that 300 winmag ready has saved many a hunter
they normally go out of their way to avoid humans. bear attacks are incredibly rare and usually only happen when they have cubs nearby
Came for your second paragraph.... It's an elk right?
It’s the opposite, it’s a red deer but not a grizzly. It’s a Eurasian Brown Bear in Slovakia
nope looks like a red deer. so this is probably a brown bear in Europe :)
Same bro, I’m horrified of bears. That’s a horrible way to go, fuck that.
The stag was drunk and the bear was just making sure they got home. Get out of here with your clickbait titles 🙄
It’s was even checking the deer’s vitals at the end…
Yeah bears don’t eat meat. Everyone knows this
Lmao - he looks at the car like “You good bro - I’m out of the way now, you can go.”
What a gentleman for clearing the road 🐻🎩
Would it not be a brown bear dragging a red stag? I would assume a grizzly would be dragging an elk in it’s natural habitat. Not trying to argue, just asking if there’s non native red deer sharing habitat with grizzlies, or is OP slightly misidentifying said bear.
Yep, this is in Central Europe; no grizzlies here.
It's Reddit, half the deer are elk and elk are moose. Grizzly is just a subspecies of brown bear anyway so they're very similar.
Still alive!
It’s videos like this that make me grateful I don’t live in the food chain
well, you can, just go to the woods
You do, you're just at the top.
I hear ya, but I live in New Zealand. Not about to be killed by a nocturnal flightless bird.
There's a vanishingly small chance of being killed by a shark, but I'm not a deep water swimmer, so yeah, I'm out of the food chain. :)
And kicking (kind of).
It’s not a grizzly, but a brown bear and this happen in Romania. Name the source, op!
It happened in Slovakia
You name the source. Cos you are wrong. (as stated by another user, this is from Slovakia)
This happened in Slovakia so I am not sure about grizzly
He's just giving you room to drive by, that's the mundane thing to do. Even going all the way to giving you a head nod around the end to let you know it's good to go.
Not a Grizzly. A European Brown bear as this was taken in Slovakia. Different population to the North American brown bears
American 78 feet away: "I could fight that, unarmed and naked!"
That’s a powerful jaw to be able to pick up an animal of that size like that
They are just playing rough. Very cute
That’s a terrible way to go, poor deer.
It’s okay, they’re friends
Imma need you to stop resisting.
Well… this should be more of a road “side” dinner, there that’s better. Move along metal cocoons with tasty meat inside. Nothing to see here.
Pretty sure that stag was hit by a car and left for dead. Bear is helping it off the road and is about to administer aid.
Pretty sure that's an European brown bear
Shouldn’t that bear be hibernating?
The most frightening thing here is that the deer is alive, sheez, I pray to God that this never happens to me.
bears are EFFORTLESSLY strong. Fuck that’s a heavy rudolph i promise
I never ever ever want to be eaten alive. Fuck that.
- WHERE: Road between the town of Brezno and the village of Hrinová, SLOVAKIA, Europe
-BEAR: Eurasian brown bear (Ursus arctos arctos)
This is in my home country Slovakia. It’s a brown bear there are no grizzlies here
You can pass now. Hey! I said YOU CAN PASS NOW!
Who would win in a fight a grizzly bear or a gorilla?
There’s like a 700lb disparity between the largest grizzly bears vs the largest gorilla. The gorilla wouldn’t stand a chance.
Depends on who swam over to start the fight.
Dayum. Def one of the most metal post ive seen on this sub. The way he drug that elk and flipped him over like he weighed nothing…
This is clearly staged the red stag and his friend will get up and joke about this later
That deer weighs north of 400lbs for anyone wondering. The bear's strength is insane
Isn’t bears suppose to be in hibernation by now?
This is a crazy vid damn
We eating good tonight boys
I felt the same way that time I drank too much Red Stag...
Rough way to go, but I love a bit of venison!
One of its friends is getting married, they will have a stag party
What was one excited bear
nature be…..
This is what a bad day and good day looks like.
I learned from Disney that bears only eat honey.
Imagine being charged, you have your bear mace in your hand and you empty the canister. Except you stumble and it gets you instead.
The the bear then waits a few mins before chomping down on its spicey meal of the day
Might have been hit by a car and easy prey… that’s why it’s just laying there in the road and not putting up much of a fight
How close would you get to see the action?
Thought that was an elk
Knows enough to get out of the middle of the road with fresh meal. Smarter than the average bear.
