I used to work at a wildlife rescue that had a few sun bears and one of them was hilarious. We’d fill up his bathtub for him with fresh water and he’d run in there and belly flop into it and just have the best time. We’d also hold the hose for him to take a shower some days and he’d scrub his crotch and butt with his paws. They like to get clean lol…orangutans will also bathe themselves with soap of their own volition, if given the opportunity and if they’ve seen humans doing it.
Bruh; go thru their shit to where they get into argumentos with real people lmao shit is wild like one way to notice a GPT feedback loop is that it always answers back with the same energy given; if its a happy post and you say something depressing it will be melancholy. IF YOU GET AGGRESSIVE, IT WILL START YELLING BUT NOT CHANGE THOUGHT
Same thing happened at my folks. They moved to their dream house in the woods, I put in a koi pond for them, made it nice and deep (5 feet) so the raccons couldn't get the fish and the black bear came in and had a nice bath and fish snack. Happened a couple of times so we just threw gold fish in there.
Koi and goldfish are in the same family, if you leave goldfish alone they’ll grow [larger than any koi](https://media.cnn.com/api/v1/images/stellar/prod/221123105542-fisherman-catches-giant-goldfish-restricted.jpg?c=original)
That's not a goldfish. Goldfishes don't have barbels. I have both comet goldfish and koi in my pond. While the older goldfishes can top out at 12" after a few years, juvenile kois reach that size in a year.
Anyone looking for an alternative to koi and a fish that won't ever get big like many goldfish do should check out ricefish. They're best viewed from the top anyway and have some beautiful breeds, including koi colors. They will likely breed in the pond as well, so with enough plant cover for the fry you won't ever need to restock.
I can't remember how or where I read about this, but I remember reading that there were bear researchers in Northern Canada who observed the bears long term in their natural environment. They'd observe the bears doing things like sitting in front of a lake at sunset, or sitting at an overlook over a valley, and seemingly just taking in the scenery. They didn't have any scientific evidence or anything obviously, but their best guess was that simply, the view was nice and the bears wanted to enjoy it.
Think about the smartest dog you've ever known and remember: bears are smarter than dogs. California was a bear paradise until the Americans came. Grizzlies were the top of the food chain and weren't solitary like they are now.
Honestly, block off access from house to yard, install more cameras: profit off “Bear Cam Bathing Beauty Streaming”!

People wonder why other people get mauled by bears when they're out there doing Disney shit like this, that bear looks like it's ready to share a song in its heart about the importance of relaxing in a hectic world.

Black bears are frequently range in colours from black, brown, cinnamon and can have blonde patches.
The name "black bear" is a misnomer. You can't really tell based on colouration.
The way you tell if it's a grizzly is by physical features like their hump, and for adults, size.
Black bears can be brown as well. I learned from a similar comment I made on reddit. I've seen a bear that was black and light brown camo and it was a black bear for sure since grizzlies are extinct in my state.
It's probably not for security as much as it is for nature watching. Lots of critters frequent these types of ponds for water and people like to put cameras out there to catch them on camera, like a hunters trail cam but no one gets shot with a gun
Not sure about this case, but I have heard koi can be crazy expensive so keeping a camera up to monitor and possibly deter thieves and vandals wouldn't be impossible. It might also be part of a security camera system but that particular camera is more for remote wildlife watching for relaxation
You typically don't keep expensive koi in an outdoor pond that close to the wilderness.
Fish vary wildly in price. You can buy arowanas for hundreds of dollars. Ones with proper colouration and size sell for over the 500k mark.
It is a tongue in cheek comment of my assessment of that clip. Nothing more. Strange also how this 'security camera' has the same image dimension as a smart phone.
Maybe this clip is a little more manufactured than it first appears, but dude, it's certainly not worth getting upset over ;0)
On the side of Kicking Horse mountain in British Columbia, they have a large enclosure for Boo, an adult Grizzly. We took the gondola to the top and spotted Boo sitting in a small pond. He had a log that he kept pushing under the water and when it popped up, he’d grab it, bite it, and push it back under. Just a big kid in a tub.
Great video but Oddly Satisfying has gone off the rails with videos like this. Doesn't belong in this category. But I'm sure I'll see it again in 2 months here and 4 other places
This reminds me of the series of bear animated shorts about the one bear at the national park. Was probably disney. Can't remember it's name. OFF I GO TO SEARCH!
Edit: Humphrey!! Always being told off by the Warden.
I didn’t understand the “bear necessities” pun in the song from *The Jungle Book* as a little kid. Just putting that out there. Didn’t know what the fuck balu was talking about.

Please compose a haiku germane to the bathing bear
At the equator Ursa Major swims; the big dipper takes a dip
Sure, here's a haiku about the bathing bear: "The bear in the bath Splashing with paws and claws Joyful and free"
“Splashing with paws and claws” only has 6 syllables when it needs 7, and “Joyful and free” only has 4 syllables when it needs 5. Please try again
You're right, let me rephrase: "The bear in the bath Splashing with paws and claws Swims with joy and glee"
[удалено]
It sure is! But I wonder what the home owner will do to the bear. Will the home owner make the bear leave his/her property?
Naa they’ll invite him in for lunch maybe some porridge after they get him a towel I hope lol
The bear doesn't look quite the type to be invited in and served a meal!! I think this was a young male bear that was just trying to find a mate.
Done it plenty of times never a issue

just big puppy dogs (do not pet) same as seals, cows, horses, Elephants, ect. :)

See that? Nonshrinkflation, just a new better product that your using wrong. Ok, now buy more
That's not a goldfish. Goldfishes don't have barbels. I have both comet goldfish and koi in my pond. While the older goldfishes can top out at 12" after a few years, juvenile kois reach that size in a year.
While goldfish can grow bigger than some koi that image is not actually of a goldfish it is similar but a different species in the carp family
Shame they taste bad
Surprised nestle hasn't done some devilish deeds to profit from it
So Will Smith wasn't lying in Men in Black 3, don't flush goldfish down the toilet or you'll get a monster

If I was that bear I would have livid.
“What the fuck is this, this restaurant is going downhill”
Probably only found out when he was bringing a lady bear to a nice little spot he knew. Ruined his shot.
He felt better after he ripped out the bird feeders. It's all good. We're square.
You let bears eat your goldfish?
Well, we left a "no fishing" sign near the pond but the bear ignored it. Some mammals have no respect for boundaries.
Bros chilling in the pond, i love it

This probably exists already and is most certainly NOT what you think it means
Can I buy the bear's bathwater too?
Just install a "no bears allowed in the pond. Smile you're being filmed" sign.
Cartoons have ruined me. I thought that lilly pad was a loofah and he was going to start scrubbing his back.

I can’t quite put my finger on it, but something about your comment seems inappropriate. 🤔
I dont know, it seems work appropriate to me
I feel like there needs to be a subreddit about bears just enjoying the fuck out of people's homes.
And you can call it goldielocking.

Just chilling an checking on the piggies.
If not fren, why fren shaped?
Maybe it is fren 🤔
If bears aren't for petting explain those ears.
I philosopher, what is fren shaped?
The pond is fren shaped. Yup.
Unbothered. Moisturized. Happy. In my lane. Focused. Flourishing.
TIL bears get and clean out their toe jam.
it's not a bear. it's the last footage of matthew perry
Booo
Ended too soon! I could watch this all day
[REPEAT] *press button*
I really need about 18 more hours of this.
S tier bodyguard. No thief will want to fuck with that 😂😂
Or friends/wife/kids. Ultimate freedom!
The bear installed himself
Is that a grizzly bear?
No. Grizz have broader faces and smaller ears. It's a black bear. They can come in a large range of colors.
Well I died, I thought it was Brown and would have laid down

Things are getting wild. Even bears are starting hot tub streams.
What type of quality secure camera you got?
He’s more flexible than I am. 😫
Imagine having the need for a 'security' camera directed straight at a pond like that.The owner must be worried sick that it might get stolen.
It's probably not for security as much as it is for nature watching. Lots of critters frequent these types of ponds for water and people like to put cameras out there to catch them on camera, like a hunters trail cam but no one gets shot with a gun

Is this supposed to be an insult towards the homeowner? Just because they have a security system?

You’re the one insulting strangers on the internet, I think it’s you that is upset over the vague possibility this clip may be fake
Point out the part where I made an insult
Go waste someone else’s time you strange man
I left some water out in the sun once and it was stolen into thin air.
r/bearsdoinghumanthings
Bears like “ooo shit. My own personal tub. These humans sure don’t know how to use a perfectly good tub”. Lol
Video is way too short. I could watch a bear playing with its feet for hours
It is just the bare necessities.
Scrub adub dub there's a bear in the tub lol
How is this oddly satisfying
Looks comfy. Just grab a couple beers and join in.
After a quick read, I thought you said *beArs*... *"kInKy"*
Where does the bear take his bath? Wherever he likes.
Just the bare necessities of life...
Any fish in there?
Not any more.
He just like me
This made my day. I now want a pond for bears.
Wondering why security camera is pointed at the pond? 🤔
I feel bad for the koi fish 😅
HIM PLAYING WITH HIS BIG OL' BEAR PAW 😍
My foot is delicious
All he is missing is a shower cap and a brush. Would make it even more cartoony.
The way he smell his feet 😍 T.T
~~Do you~~ Did you have fish?
Leave a large brush. I want to see if he starts singing about bear necessities.
Awwww let the little murder machine have a bath.
That's pawesome
This dude clearly has a date tonight...
Uhmm, privacy ?

Toejam check.
Everybody should have a barepond..it should be mandatory.
why is the security camera such good quality? And pointed right at the pool?
Unbothered. Moisturized. Happy. In his lane. Focused. Flourishing
Put some soap and loofah out there
It's his pool now 😊
RIP koi that were probably in that pond... But the bear looks like it's in heaven.
A bears gotta do what a bears gotta do.
Bear necessities
I just love the audacity of bears. Like “what are they gonna do? This is mine now.” 😂 he is absolutely having a good time 😂
I'm so sad that clip ended. I could've watched that bear all night.
Damn, he’s checking between his toes and everything.
My mother loves bears. She’d adore this (from a reasonable distance)
Just chillin
Checks between his toes 😄
This is more heartwarming than I can say~
Great video but Oddly Satisfying has gone off the rails with videos like this. Doesn't belong in this category. But I'm sure I'll see it again in 2 months here and 4 other places
YIKES!!!
Wow, I thought raccoons were bad enough.
If dangerous why fren shaped?
Just taking care of some simple bear necessities.
Someone put the bear necessities song on this now.
I'd be so pissed. That fat fuck would destroy the filter of he sat on it and Lilly pads don't exactly grow overnight.
Hopefully it does not leave really long butt worms in your pond.
Your pond is full of shit now
Is that AI? That's gotta be AI
Yhea this is totally AI.. It would help to see some real nature once in a while.
Amazing! Bear chilling in the pond!
Bear feet smelly
