The grizzly man in this video was eaten by a grizzly bear, so there’s that.
And his girlfriend.
lol, grizzlies have one mood - pissed off. 😆 Keep your distance.
dude said "a gator could kill you faster", that's the problem, bears are so apex that they don't bother killing you fast, they literally eat you alive because once they're on top of something it isn't getting away
Don't to speak ill of the dead. But he was a moron, so there's that too.
The guy is that video talking about bears was eaten alive, and it was not quick.
The biggest grizzly bear outweighs the biggest gorilla by OVER A THOUSAND POUNDS. No way the bear does not win.
Betty White was a big supporter of animals and animal charities
❤🦙🐊🐒
❤❤❤❤❤
She loved feeding that huge crocodile!
She was also a cougar
I miss her so much!
right? 😅
Floridian here, the general rule with alligators is if there’s a body of fresh water it’s best to assume there’s an alligator in it. Every morning when I drive to work I see a gator in the retention pond outside the church on my way. But anyways, generally as long as you don’t mess with them they won’t bother you outside of mating season (which everyone will let you know when that starts, believe me)
Edit: coral snakes actually are shy and not terribly aggressive, sometimes even allowing kids to pick them up (which is why kids often are bitten by them). It’s the rattlesnakes that you need to keep an eye on.
Cottonmouths are the worst. They are downright aggressive and they don't have a rattle to warn you. Another good reason to stay out of ponds and lakes in Florida.
So true!
I live in Florida, too. My advice is, if you can't outrun an alligator, stay away from the water. Two older people near me were killed by alligators that came out of the water and attacked them.
As a Floridian, it is pretty crazy how there are so many things here that can warm you, I grew up in south Florida, and new constantly reported gators popping up in people's pools and canals right by their backyard ( this is what happens when you decide to have a house close to the Everglades) you have to keep a look out for some pretty nasty spiders too.
I am a 4th generation Floridian. In my 50+ years and my parents' 70+ years, we have never seen a coral snake.
We also have only seen black and brown widows one year. For some reason, one summer 10 years ago, my neighborhood had an influx of widow spiders. But they stayed outside (plus the garage). And after that summer, they disappeared. It was rather weird.
I do know more than one person bitten by recluse spiders. Nasty, nasty creatures. But none of them died. They just got sick and spots of necrosis. We always smack our shoes before putting them on.
I’d rather be confronted by 10 alligators or crocs than 1 grizzly
They can also run about 30 MPH.
No animal scares me more than bears. Then again, they're a real potential threat here in the pacific northwest. Alligators, not so much!
Everyday. Gators are generally chill. Crocs not so much, but a grizzly just wants to kill you.
The deer will hunt you down...
Don’t forget the killer squirrels!!😂
A bear can crush a bowling ball in its mouth. They are friend shaped, but they are danger floofs.
I can easily avoid alligators by not going near the water's edge. If I stumble across a grizzly bear on a hike, whether I live or die is basically up to the mood of that bear.
😂Gators aren't always in the water. We always had to check under the porch when leaving the house and had a few park themselves under our truck.
I’ve seen them on the side of the road, on porches, in garages and in swimming pools. Yes staying away from the water’s edge is safer but don’t let your guard down.
Floridian here. They are under cars and bushes, in swimming pools and hot tubs, on golf courses, in shallow canals, home yards driveways…. Basically everywhere. They also have a pretty impressive land speed and can climb chain link fences.
@@debbrown4731 Yea I live in south Florida and I know alligators can leave water. (I'm not dumb). Alligators don't actively hunt away from bodies of water. Yea, you can get bit by a alligator no matter where they are at but they kill large prey by drowning; they are wired to kill this way. If you see an alligator on a golf course it isn't going to chase you; it will avoid you. If you get bit walking off your porch its because you scared the gator, not because it was waiting for you to leave your house. How many gator deaths in Florida are people being too comfortable near or in water that is known to have gators in it vs other scenarios, while most bear deaths are people just going on a hike and being unfortunate enough to run into a hungry bear or a bear with cubs.
@@austinhenry4092 as a longtime Floridian, I agree. But people tend not to respect the danger. If you unknowingly walk close to a gator who has eggs or babies, they will probably charge you! Just a few years ago family from the Midwest had their young child taken by a gator at Disneyworld in Orlando. Yes, there’s gators in the lakes at Disney. They found his body tucked underwater in tree debris a day or two later. We lived in a condo on a lake near downtown JAX and the gators would routinely sun on the ground floors back patio. We’d alert Florida Fish and Wildlife when we’d see the big ones pushing 9 and 10 feet and they’d come out and relocate them for their safety as well as everyone in the complex.
On land, bears are unstoppable. In water, 2.5 meter alligators are unstoppable.
I'm surprised the video didn't mention bison: tourists keep getting attacked or killed at national parks because they assume bison are docile and tame like cows, and get too close for a photo or try to pet them. As the video points out, even domestic cows are dangerous. It's amazing that people will see a creature bigger than their car, with horns, and assume that because it eats grass, its safe.
Oh yeah, bison are terrifying. They attack 3 times as many humans per year than bears do, and you’re more likely to survive a bear attack than a bison attack.
That's becuz our "education" says that herbivores aren't interested in killing us, and leaves out the part where herbivores (especially the large ones) have evolved to be able to fight off predators, and thus are every bit as if not even more dangerous than carnivores. Those hooves, horns, and antlers aren't just for mating fights.
@@MagsonDare And as Casual Geographic says, an animal is only as herbivorous as its opportunities.
They would probably be grouped in with the livestock category.
@EntertainMeNow78 They're not livestock, though. There are a few captive herds that are harvested for their meat, yes, but they're no more livestock than wolves or deer. And I was specifically talking about tourist deaths by free-roaming bison.
*NAPLES, FL....... literally Beverly Hills of FL with many $50-200 MILLION DOLLAR HOUSES & BILLIONAIRES LIVING THERE..... has the Naples Country Club golf course w/ over 50 aligators living in the golf course ponds.*
Grizz has claws to rip open the silverback
Yep. That’s exactly what I was going to say. Huge claws beat fingers every day in a fight.
Grizzlies have been know to break the backs of moose with a single swipe. Just the sheer force alone
100% grizzly wins that fight, they pin it down with the claws that can be up to 6inches and crush its skull with its jaw that can crush bowling balls. And more then likely they will just crush its jaw then start eating it alive like they do in the wild
to answer the question if that fight was ever to happen, both are super strong and not as dumb as human about those confrontations : 1 of them would just run off or they would both understand in a second that fight is not worth the risk -.- unlike half the humans killed by those who should have understand to not mess arround pissed off wild animals. call it natural selection against the idiots 😴
all that to say wild animal have the instinct to know right away if they should attack or get away and avoid a fight so that would never happen
Yes. Both have fangs, but grizzlies are bigger and also have knife hands. No contest.
Betty White was a big animal advocate. She even played a role on a horror movie, "Lake Placid." It was funny, because her character was the only one protecting the gigantic crocodile, instead of trying to kill it. 😂 If you ever visit Florida, just keep this as a rule: any water can be gator-water.
A polar bear would destroy a gorilla. Adult male polar bears typically top out at 1200 lbs. Adult male gorillas top out at about 450 lbs. Polar bears are about three times the weight of a gorilla. Polar bears have claws and teeth meant to kill. Gorillas may have fangs but typically do not kill each other while fighting.
I think it all depends on who is faster at dealing a deadly blow. Size doesn't matter on how deadly something is.
They do kill. A gorilla snapped a leopard's back. Gorilla died of bloodloss.
@@AndrewZelenka You can shoot a polar bear with a rifle and it'll still run you down.
@@AndrewZelenka There is merit to the sheer grip strength and pummeling force of a gorilla, but keep in mind that even grizzlies have claws longer than crayons. They can straight up disembowel anything with a swipe. Now imagine something proportionally almost twice as big as a grizzly. I'm not saying the gorilla's guaranteed a loss, but the polar bear definitely enjoys some significant advantages.
Bears and cats have muscles and membranes that reduce damage from claws and fangs. Thats why when you see tigers or grizzlies fighting each other, they don’t get shredded. Gorillas, just like humans, would get badly hurt. In places where they inhabit the same environment, leopards can kill gorillas.
We have plenty of Alligators here in East Texas as well. I've hunted alligators. The last one I killed was ten feet long and 150 pounds.
If you ever find yourself in the grip of an alligators mouth. Always remember that you can push your fingers into it's nasel, Their nose holes) openings. Which will open the flaps that seal their nose off from the water. After the water rushes into their nasel opening it continues into their lungs. At which point they will most likely release you.
Ironic that Timothy Treadwell, who is talking about the bears, was actually killed and eaten, along with his girlfriend, by the very bears that he observed for years. So that’s a big nope, bear watching.
And then that jerk Herzog made us just watch HIM get to watch it but wouldn't let US get the satisfaction of watching that smug little asshat get what was coming to him. 90 minutes of my life I'm never getting back.
I’m not exactly sure where I heard the audio of both their deaths, however I know it was some podcast. Anyway, freaking terrifying as the bear was eating him alive for minutes, and then you slowly hear him not screaming anymore as the bear goes into the tent to find his girlfriend and the same screaming for minutes is heard until she finally died from most likely blood loss.
Betty White White donated nearly $100,000 to the zoo in the month of April 2008 alone. She was a huge advocate for the protection of wild and
Domestic animals
Betty White was an extremely well-known animal lover & advocate & even has a foundation that donates to animal foundations & she's done lots of television specials for animals....bears are faster than crocodiles & alligators & can kill you with one strike of its claws compared to a crocodile & alligator bite....bear would kill the gorilla....I live in Arizona & I've only seen a few rattlesnakes & scorpions....best advice is wear close toed shoes & jeans & long sleeve shirts when walking in the middle of the desert....dog attacks happen cus of people not raising & training properly & people mistreating them....cows can bite & when they kick it can break bones & a stampede of them can easily crush you....same goes for horses....deer antlers & hooves are sharp & can easily kill you if its the runting season or defending their young
I am in South Carolina, so we have all these! My irrational fears are from gators. Nope. Just saw my first snake of the season right before this video. It was only a 4' black racer, so he got an automatic free pass in the yard. 😅
I was actuallly shocked to see the cows, horses, and deer. That was not even on my scope for this, but true! 😳
They have "Deer Crossing" signs on the roads here, but the Deer pay no attention to them.
😁
I know so annoying they ignore those signs...
I live in NJ and in one area we even built the deer a wonderful overpass across a 6 lane highway, they jump the fence built to corral them onto the grassy overpass and play with the cars going 60+ mph at sunset...
You must be a relative of that lady who called into the radio...
ruclips.net/video/RFCrJleggrI/видео.htmlsi=sg1IVoiifLZrmYXv
Its a pleasure to meet the kin of such a smart person 😂😅
We have bear crossing signs where I live. (black bears)
😂😂😂😂
My family was in a deer crash on the highway. It jumped over the median, and we collided at 70 mph (112 kph) while it was mid-air. The front of the car got totaled, the windshield got cracked but didn't collapse, and barely any injuries (very lucky). Where I'm from in Michigan, I usually see a dead deer at the side of the road, even in fairly populated areas.
A cougar is just like your cat, except it weighs 100 lbs😂 and it's hungry
I have a regular house cat, and I've lost several fights with him. My right arm has the scabs to prove it. When I consider a Cougar has a similar temperament, I'm pretty sure I would be dead if I were one of those fools who thinks a wild animal would make a good pet.
Don't get me wrong, I think wild cats are beautiful animals. I'm just content seeing them on TV or securely under the control of trained professionals.
A 100lb cougar?
You mean a baby one?
its more correct to say his cat is like the cougar and its only lacking about 70lbs that prevents it eating its owners..
this is science cat lovers.. sorry but your cat would eat you if it had another 50lbs under its belt.
@@ripvanwinkle2002 Cats - even wild cats, can remember people that it loves for the span of it's entire life, and they will protect them for the rest of it's life. I've seen people that rescued tigers, lions, jaguars, and cheetahs as cubs and young adults in south America and Africa, and come back 10+ years later, and they will still remember the Human and protect them from other cats, or other predators. Dogs are too stupid to remember more than a few months usually. I had many cats growing up and my family treated the cats with love and they always returned the love. Dogs won't do that, because dogs are stupid. Dogs kill their owners all the time, even after 10+ years, their brains swell and start to rot at random, and they will attack their owners and children. I don't care what people think or say, but cats are so much smarter and protective. I've had enough dogs to know better to never get a stupid slobbering, barking, yapping, yelping MUTT ever again.
When I was 5 yrs old, my parents and I had moved out to the country and we had to be inside by dusk because our house butted up against a big forest (no fence separating the forest from our backyard). There was a Cougar that lived in that forest and it would come out of the woods, into our backyard and right up onto back porch and pace around just after dusk. We could look out our kitchen window/the window in the back door and get an up close look at the Cougar! lol
The true story of the USS Indianapolis is a far scarier shark story than the movie Jaws.

Bears absolutely wipe the floor with a silverback
It's not even close either, those are killing machines
It would be a spectacle to see. But my money's on the bear. When I saw one in person I was star struck and realized how small humans are.
Depends on the bear. Black bears are small, so it would get thrashed by the silverback. Brown bears are much larger and might be close or even. A Kodiak or polar bear would wipe the floor with the gorilla.
@@McKavian nope not at all. Black bears still have claws that easily tear into arteries. Look up any animal experts option on this and they will say the same. Also Silverback males average weight is 460lbs and the black bear males are 485lbs. They are a very similar size animal so idk where you are getting “they are small” from 😂
Andre I spent 2 years serving the USAF in the Acores. Loved my time there
Bears are more common and more mobile, more potential for danger. In fact, that fella by the river in the bear part of the clip was eventually killed by a bear along with his girlfriend.
Lady Betty was an animal conservationist. So she often spoke on animals and habitats.❤
Cougar attacks are rare but not unheard of. Just last month here in Washington state, three 60-something women who were biking on a forest trail were attacked by a young cougar. It pinned one woman and caused severe facial injuries around her jaw. Her friends beat the cat and held it down with one of their bikes until a wildlife cop came and shot the cougar.
Alligators on golf courses can be intimidating. I hit one ball near two huge ones at Kiawah island and as I approached they growled / hissed. I took a drop and the penalty. Especially since I had eaten alligator at dinner the night before.
A brown recluse bit our previous dog (a basset hound) on the snout and caused lifelong black scarring on his snout.
I lived in WA state and always carried a pistol when I hiked.
Weren’t there a couple like 20ish year old brothers killed this month in Cali by big cats?
Then again, there is a documented case of a middle-aged woman killed by a feral pack of wiener dogs too. Another case where a young, healthy woman was killed by a couple of lowly coyotes.
@@catherinelw9365 same. Even on hikes to the grocery store.
Animals are only a threat because of naive uneducated people who keep wandering into the wilds and then blaming the animals for defending their homes.
During your comment about stinging insects, when you said "You can die from a bite of those". I had to laugh because the screen was showing a woman holding a McDonalds burger.
The thing about bears is that they will start eating you, before they kill you. They will hold you down with a massive paw, and start gulping down chunks, clothes and all.
If you look at the bear claws which are around 5-8 inches long if you get caught by one, they are not cute.
The Moose is another one that many people should be aware of. Especially if they have their young ones. Deer are mostly involved with vehicle collisions. They run out into the road & the driver does not see them until it is too late. Thank you for sharing this one.
Mountain lions in the Black Hills have jumped down on cars.
Moose are deer, so I'm not surprised
As a person who lived in Alaska, I can confirm that moose can be more dangerous than a full grown adult grizzly especially in the fall
True, there are more moose attacks than bear
I've heard that it has been said that if you ever spot a polar bear in the wild, it already is aware of you and is tracking you. They are extremely aggressive and absolutely huge. If one gets to you there is pretty much nothing you can do to survive.
I don't know why anyone would say you could be a Florida-man! That's an insult that means a person who does outrageously stupid and usually drug fueled crimes.
YOU, queridinho, are much too nice and seem quite intelligent.🤗💜
Betty White was a big cat advocate. She loved big cats, and done a lot of work in regards to them.
My old roommate got bitten by a brown recluse. It caused an ulcer on his arm that became necrotic, ate his skin down to the bone, and took a year to fully heal. And deer are no joke! A huge percentage of people here in Oregon know someone who's died in a crash involving deer. My own family got into an accident because of one a few years back. Thankfully it was young and small, so we were all fine, but it still absolutely TOTALED our car.
Same happened to me. Didn’t get to the bone on the back of my calf, but the tiny bite turned to a hole the size of a quarter before antibiotics started to work.
My dad nearly lost a finger to the same. The doctor told him they'd have to amputate but my dad's coworker was a Native American man who said they had an herbal remedy for it and gave him a cream of some kind after work one day. My dad used the cream and, they had to cut out the muscle that got bit, but he kept his finger. Went to work after only to find out the guy quit. Obviously he thanked the guy when he gave him the cream but, 'thanks for the herbal remedy' thank yous, and 'you freaking saved me from getting my *finger chopped off'* thank yous are different things. My dad would have liked to thank him properly. Never saw him again though.
Grizzly Bear would eviscerate a gorilla in almost every case
The bear advice saying:
Black - fight back
Brown - lay down
White - goodnight
Not guaranteed to save you either. If you see a polar it's been following you for hours and it's definitely in striking range.
@@xujenvoxith360 Well that's why it goes white - goodnight. Polar bears kill humans for fun and without any sign of aggression. If you are not somewhere safe upon spotting a polar, it's best to assume you are already dead.
@@xujenvoxith360 yep, that's the point of the phrase. goodnight - you aren't getting away
So what about Oreo or 🐼
I live in North Texas, the home of Black Widow and Brown Recluse spiders and a number of highly venomous vipers like Rattlesnakes, Copperheads, and Water Moccasins. I kill about 3 copperheads in my back yard every year. Thankfully, I have not had a dog get snake bit in about 7 years.
a gorilla would have no shance!
I grew up in the mountains in Oregon. As kids my older siblings would catch a black widow spider and a scorpion in a jar to see which would win. I believe is was always the scorpion!
Betty White was very much an advocate for animals, from dogs and cats to all living creatures as was Bob Barker ( The Price is Right ). Between the two of them they saved many animal lives.
By dramatic promotion of having animal's genitals mutilated and surgically removed. Bob Barker every day: ''Have your pets spayed or neutered!'' This is literally animal control, and people like you think they are saving them. LMFAO. Come on. Get a grip.
Fun fact .Grizzly bears can snap a moose back in half with a single swipe .
Adult Grizzly bears stand up to 9 feet tall. They would eat gorilla without stopping to drink.
Alligators have killed 3 people in my part of Florida over the years I've lived here. One little boy was swimming with his friends in a local river and was pulled under, but you don't have to be in the water. One man in his 70s had a bad habit of feeding the alligators. One of them was waiting for him beside the water and attacked him. One poor 82-year-old lady was walking her dog by a pond. The alligator came out of the pond and attacked her dog. She forced it to free her dog, and then it attacked her and dragged her into the water.
Here in Michigan we have the highest deer population. One night I was driving 55mph on a country road and 5 deer ran out directly in front of me out of the darkness. Two of them smashed into the side of my car (totaling the car) and they just scampered off like it was no big deal. It’s pretty common here to have deer slam into your car and then they just run off into the woods totally unaffected (meanwhile the whole side of your car will be smashed in).
Crocodilians have an attack known as a Death Roll.
So, if you're getting attacked by a Gator, pray it grabs one of your limbs. I'd gladly negotiate an arm or leg if it meant surviving an attack.
EDIT: I'll leave this here. Its from a Park Ranger at Yellowstone, I believe.
When asked why it was so hard to make trash cans that people can use and that Bears cannot break into. His response was this:
"There is considerable overlap between the smartest of bears and the dumbest of humans."
I had a Bigfoot encounter at the Quickee Mart years ago . But it turned out to be just a hippie.
😅😅😅
😂
🤣😆🤣😆🤣😆
Bigfoot are demons spirits that's why they appear and disappear and no body ever been found
Flame thrower is the perfect spider and snake repellant
when I was a kid, they taught us about bears:
if it's black, fight back (black bears are more timid and likely to run away)
if it's brown, lie down (grizzly bears are more likely to get distracted and wander off, but if they want to eat you, they're gonna and there's nothing you can do anyway)
If it's white- good night (polar bears think you're actually delicious, and will slowly wander up to you and eat you)
Because of where polar bears live, they live exclusively on meat, so you are always on the menu. Whereas other bears may fill up on berries, root vegetables, insects, eggs, nuts, moss and honey.
the part about brown bears is kind of inacurate, as in alot of instances its actually better to make your self look big (wave arms slowly) and not be intimidated with them (dont shout but speak calmly). it's only after thay have decided to attack that you want to play dead. ideally though you want bear spray which is more effective then even firearms in protecting your self.
This rhyme manages to be both hilarious and frightening at the same time 😂
Not to mention that polar bears are the only known species of bear, I think, that actively hunt humans.
A griz normally will NOT hunt a human BUT a black bear will not only hunt a human but are smart enough to actually backtrack and get behind a human and try to ambush him or her.
Grizzly is murking silverback gorilla all day everyday. An Alaskan grizzly can weigh up to 900 pounds, stands a half a foot taller than a gorilla, weighs about 2 or 3 hundred pounds more, and has claws about 4 or maybe 6 inches long. Their skin is so thick that they are almost impossible to damage with bullets. Gorillas look insanely jacked lol. Grizzlies are more aggressive. As others have likely said, the dude in the grizzly video got himself and his girlfriend eaten by assuming that the bears trusted him and had gotten to know him. The RUclipsr Casual Geographic did a video on this matchup.
You can mostly stay away from alligators by avoiding bodies of water. Bears cover a lot of territory, and once you’re in bear country, you’re in bear country. Also, bears breathe air like we do - and I guess so do alligators, but since their patented method of clutching their prey and then rolling over in the water until the victim drowns is kind of a double whammy.
I lived in Florida for several years. Outside the water, alligators are relatively safe. I walked past many that were sunning themselves beside a lake (I might have been stupid, not sure). If they're in the water, they're VERY dangerous. As in, the moment they decide to lunge at you, it's game over.
@@andrewholden1501 They can move on land faster than I would expect. And the water’s edge may be more dangerous if they’re protecting a nest.
@@inthedarkanonymous5625 Yeah, but if they're not protecting a next, and they're on land, then they might as well be on a beach chair with a Piña Colada. That said, before I walked past them, I gauged their disposition VERY carefully. I was young and stupid, not just stupid!
@@andrewholden1501 An envelope I have no interest in pushing.
If people are telling you that you could be a Florida man, they are not suggesting that you live in or even visit Florida. They are saying that you do some crazy stuff.
I live in southern Oregon and I met a 911 dispatcher who told me that an elderly lady had called in because a deer had chased her (and her little dog) into an alley and wouldn't let them escape. She hid in the bushes and called for help.
But, I'm surprised this video didn't mention moose specifically. A moose is a type of deer and they are really really dangerous.
Also, my money is on the bear. They may look sweet and cuddly, but that's how they get you. With an alligator, you know you're up against something dangerous. With a bear, you might stupidly think that if you just talk nicely to it, it will leave you alone.
And gorillas are smart-- smart enough to run. Bears get in a rage and will crush your car/tear it into pieces.
By the way, if you like scary movies... The most frightening movie I ever saw was about a true story out of Africa of 2 lions who systematically hunted and wiped out a railroad crew. Stars Val Kilmer, called 'The Ghost and the Darkness.' It was terrifying.
I've actually seen the lions from that movie in person - they're on display (taxidermied, obviously) at the Field Museum in Chicago, IL.
It was a true story too.
Incidentally, those 2 lions are in Chicago's Field Museum. They were on full time display well into the '80's. IDK if they still are, haven't been back since 1982.
The biggest and most ferocious Grizzlies are about twice the size of a Gorilla , and they can run and fight at the same time for hours.
3:10 The late Betty White was *HUGE* animal lover!
"Lace Placid" (1999) 👍
I have lived in Florida for 40 years, I have lived in 4 different counties rural and urban, I had a place in the country next to a stream surrounded by woods and a swamp near by and I have never had a problem with alligators. But I have been bitten by 2 dogs.
Don’t be fooled by how cute bears look a Grizzly bear can decapitate a human with one swipe of it’s massive claws
Maybe but usually they just slowly eat you alive 😅
Yes, alligators are dinosaurs. Betty White was a big advocate of animal rights. A grizzly bear can be twice as tall as a gorilla. Hitting a deer with a car is like hitting a brick wall.
Alligators can't climb trees. Black bears can.
Look up the Cuban crocodile. These crocodiles JUMP out of the water and catch prey in trees!
Black Bears are shy and timid. They're the hiking animal you'd rather run in to lmao, Mountain Lions and Grizzlies are way more dangerous, black bears try to avoid humans all together and only act aggressively if they feel threatened or frightened. For a comparison, black bears average 1 attack a year and 1 death every 2 years. Alligators/Crocodiles 15 attacks a year and 1 death a year. Grizzlies 45 attacks a year, 6 deaths per year.
And bears can swim too and run real fast!
Yeah, that’s definitely not true. They can definitely climb trees! There’s pictures of them in trees.
Yeah but black bears are just overgrown raccoons with a dye job lol
Betty White was an animal activist and did charities for animals.
The Grizzly is far worse than an alligator. A Grizzly can run at 45 mph and will chase you down to kill and eat you.
When I lived in Louisville KY, you had to be careful walking in the alleys downtown because of feral dog packs that would attack people.
Bears don’t care to kill you first, they eat you alive. That man in that first bear video is from a documentary, about him, called “Grizzly Man” and there’s audio of when he and his girlfriend were eaten alive by his “friends”, grizzly bears.
the man actually went insane and it got him and an innocent woman killed.
@@user-wi9hv2pb2q ….? Yeah, same story, “innocent” is arguable.
@@user-wi9hv2pb2q At this point intentions don't really matter when the end results are thus. Innocently causing harm to others or even killed is still a punishable offense. In the court system we call that "negligence" which punishes the same as if it were intentional.
American here, Alabama specifically. My husband and I went camping a few weeks ago in the woods of our neighbor's property, maybe a mile or two away from anything at most. It was late at night and we were inside our tent trying to sleep when we suddenly heard something with four legs running up outside our tent. We heard it pace outside for a minute, like it was observing the tent, then run away. It could have been a cougar, but it sounded quieter, smaller maybe, so maybe a bobcat. That was the quietest, scariest moment in my life, laying frozen next to my husband on that blowup mattress, holding my breath, with a thin layer of fabric between us and a wild animal, unable to see and barely able to hear it. We had weapons of course, since we were out camping, but a tactical spear, axe, or pocket knife wasn't going to do much against a cougar. We both slept poorly the rest of that night with that tactical spear beside us.
SO yes, American animals can be scary, depending on the circumstances.
The heaviest gorilla ever recorded weighed 589 pounds (267 kg) and was a silverback from Ambam, Cameroon. - The heaviest brown bear ever recorded was an Alaskan Coastal Brown Bear weighing 1,656 pounds (752 kilograms).
Brown Bears are just too massive for a gorilla to do much against. Yes, gorillas are strong, but not deflect a grizzley bear strong.
Especially since gorillas are blunt force attackers. They are not strong enough to move a bear or hit hard enough to damage them through their thick fur, hid, and fat if it’s fall or winter. Meanwhile, bears have both teeth and claws that can easily puncture a gorillas skin and cause them to bleed out.
@@skitterly or deal with the 5 inch claws
What we say in the U.S about bears if it's black fight back if it brown lay down. As for Betty White she donated a lot of money to actual legit big cat rehabilitation centers because she loved them so much.
When I was 5, I was chased by a vicious Chihuahua. They're small, but don't discard them.
No kidding. I've had Chihuahuas all my life. Just because their smalk people dismiss them as possibly being dangerous.
They may be little but almost every Chihuahua I've ever seen thinks they're King Kong, Godzilla and a Rotweiller all rolled into a compact flurry of claws abd teeth. I saw a 6 lb Chihuahua win a fight with a 100 lb German Shepherd. Once the Chihuahua locked his jaws shut on that Shepherd's throat from underneath the fight was over.
I've been bitten by two different Chihuahuas and a toy poodle, all totally unprovoked. I've been around dogs my whole life, and even a couple wolf-dog hybrids. It's definitely the little bastard ankle biters you have to look out for. They seem to be either sweet little cuddle bugs, or Satan incarnate, there is no in between.
They're nasty little rodents.
Pittbulls are also one of the most affection, gentle and loving breeds…says something more about their humans that raise them to be aggressive or starve them than it does the dogs.
I was warned when I rescued my pitty that I’d hear a bunch of negativity about the breed and I’m happy to say that I really haven’t in my area. It helps that luna (my Pitt) is friends with all the dogs and kids in the neighborhood lol
Why is it no one "raises" a shepherd to herd, or a retriever to retrieve, and despite their best efforts no one has "raised" a golden retriever to do hellraiser cosplay nannying a porcupine to death?
DOGS BRED TO KILL DON'T HAVE TO BE "RAISED" TO ENJOY MURDERING.
@@arcxjo are you a German shepherd? I’d say an English bulldog but you apparently can’t speak the language. 😉
@@arcxjo you have no idea what you’re even talking. first of somebody’s had German shepherds the majority of their life a German Shepherd does not naturally heard anything. They are working dog, and you have to teach them a skill. If you do not direct them, they will not know how to naturally her they may have a prey drive and chase something around the field, but a dog does not naturally heard anything now as far as retrievers also had a lot of labs no dog just runs and retrieve stuff and bring it back to you. It is a skill that you teach dogs have what is known as and dogs also won’t positive positive reinforcement that means you can very easily teach a dog to retrieve something because you have the drive to go get it and you have the need to be welcome in the pack and those two things work together. The number one dog that will bite you is a little small dogs obviously nobody ever says anything because usually the injury only needs a couple of stitches and I get by with it any dog that is not treated properly can bite and as far as larger dogs, you will find that labradors are a top biter the reason that Pitbulls bite more and you hear more about it is one because there’s discrimination against the breed and two because of the way that they look they look intimidating and a bunch of gang trash losers buy them and train them to be that way and then that’s what you hear about. There is no such thing as a murder dog unless you train it
Right? Someone tried to discourage me by telling me that pits harm and kill more people than any dog breed out there and I was like "well sh*t, I'll take 20. A dog with that kind of reputation means some burglar is going to think twice before they break into my house whether my pit is overly friendly or not."
Betty White is a legend! She loved animals. She was a big advocate for animals! ❤
I’ve heard you can empty your weapon in a bear and it will kill you before it bleeds to death. But I bet it would take a lot of shots for an alligator too!!!
Male cows, bulls are crazy aggressive.
So, the old joke, "Don't shoot him. You'll just make him mad?"
@@andrewholden1501 haha yes!
In my 40+ years, I've been bitten by 5 different dogs. Two were serious bites needing stitches.
6:47 Grizzly will win over gorilla. Gorillas DON'T have claws or a grizzly's sharp teeth.
Most of the dangerous animals live in specific small areas or regions and sightings are actually rare. In the Midwest and the Northeast very rarely see larger dangerous animals, though might see a nomadic one. In Chicago, where I live, we have had only one mountain lion in the last 20 years and it wandered in from South Dakota. Sharks, crocodiles, grizzly bears (even black bears), gila monsters, poisonous snakes, do not live here except in zoos.
As a kid, I was always being bitten by dogs. German Shepherds, Rottweilers, Doberman pinchers, and the list goes on. Want to know what dog I've never been bitten by? Pit Bulls, I know they have a bad rap, and some what justified, but I've always found them to be the sweetest of all the breeds.
Pit bulls have their reputation purely because of cruel owners. In the 80s and 90s, people raised German shepherds and doberman pincers for dog fighting, the they would basically beat the dogs until they got the desired temperament.. When breed-specific bans impacted their sport, they switched to pit bulls. A few years back, Maryland started a ban on pit bulls. Two days later, an ad appeared in the paper selling vicious Labrador puppies, "the new pit bull".
All of these are very sweet if raised properly. They didn't always have their current reputations In the 1950s, there was a TV show called "Little Rascals" about a bunch of kids making trouble around the neighborhood, and their pit bull named Spot.
Pit bulls used to be known as nanny dogs until unscrupulous, vile people started breeding them for aggressive tendencies.
"always being bitten by dogs" were you a jerk as a kid? lol
@@TanyaQueen182 lol, nah, I never messed with any animal, but after the first time, the rest I guess could smell the fear on me. The last time I was 16, and helping a friend move when I backed into a fence, and a Rottweiler bit me on the ass
I have never been attacked by a dog and we had Great Danes, German Shepherds, Pekingese, Dachshunds, etc. As kids we used to ride on the Grest Danes and our German Shepherd was amed Daisy who was a trained attack dog. My mother bought her for protection as we lived in the country and had prowler. It took us kids less than 3 days to undo all that training. Never had trouble with Doberman guard dogs or Labradors. A business I knew had Doberman guard dogs but I passed by every night coming home from work and we got so friendly they would come running to meet me. We also had a Greyhound once. I had friends who had several large dogs and I went to their house to visit. They were in the backyard so I just casually opened the front gate and walked through the dogs to where they were. Sandy asked if they scared me because most people feared them. I said I had been around dogs my whole life and it never even occurred to me to be afraid as I just walked right through the pack and they were very friendly.
I used to walk a towpath along a river…the deer were always on the path and never _ever_ bothered us. The deer would simply walk along or run into the brush. They aren’t aggressive. Maybe with hunters and who can blame them for that? 🤷🏼♀️
Grizzly smokes a gorilla and it's not even close.
It might have a chance if it actually knew how to fight and kill. But they are peaceful herbivores and don't have that instinct within them. Chimps are way more dangerous.
Grizzly bears can weight up to 1000 lbs, where a Gorilla can only weight max 380 lbs. Grizzly would turn gorilla into dinner.
Betty White was a big animal lover, donated millions on different animal rescues, she was an amazing person😊❤
The Pitbulls may be the most dangerous WHEN they attack, but they are among the LEAST likely to attack.
Betty White was a big advocate of animals and animal welfare.
She was
When you stared at the video and said "Bambi?!?!" it was hilarious.
I was unfortunate enough to be bit by a brown recluse spider and was put into a hyperbaric oxygen chamber to keep it from eating a hole through my leg
Same here,They gave me 24 hours for the right meds to work before amputation, Ty God it worked,a week later my Dad's friend was bit in the eye,and lost it!😢
Yes, we have giant archosaurs from the Mesozoic Era roaming around our country. It's not a dinosaur. But it is related to them. Birds are the dinosaurs.
Grizzlies get a lot bigger than gorillas and have virtual knives at the ends of their paws. Also, bears do range a lot in size. Kodiak bears can get well over 1000 pounds. A gorilla gets to around 400 pounds. o
Both the Brown Recluse and Black Widdow are more hype than horror.
They don't go looking for trouble, and when encountering people, they run and hide before anything else.
A healthy respect of spiders will keep you safe.
Yep. I had a black widow named Aneis as a pet for 2 years, and she was never a threat to me.
I keep telling my roommate my cat is a killer. He thinks she's sweet. He's never seen her snatch a bird out of the air or throw a baby rabbit against the fence post.
I can't remember who it was, but some comedian I believe it was was commenting on how mean the cats are. He said imagine a cat the size of a dog. That thing would tear you to shreds.
I once saw a stray cat immediately pounce on a baby bird that fledged out its nest!!! It didn't even make it to the ground!!! That was a super fast cat. 😢
My cat is a big baby that wants to cuddle all the time. He's also a sadistic killer of lizards, moths, mice, birds and rats.
@@Andres64B That's a cougar. Or a panther. Or a puma. Or a mountain lion.
Cats are cats. Whether you're talking about a house cat, a bobcat, a Lynx, a cougar, or a tiger, the animal is basically the same. The main difference is how quickly it can kill you, or at the smaller end, how much damage it can do before you can fight back.
@@Andres64B A cat the size of a dog is called a lynx.
the alaskan brown bear is much bigger than a grizzly, they can get north of 1200 lbs. they normally will try to avoid humans, but if startled will attack. the bears i fear the most are the polar and black bears, if they attack its usually because they intend to feed on you.
0:17 lol. As a second generation Floridian, I can tell you, as long as you are intelligent you will be fine
I grew up swimming with alligators my whole life
They are only aggressive under a couple of conditions
When we were kids, and we were camping in the woods, I remember seeing six alligators, approaching us, while we were in the water.
I told my father, to see if he thought we should do something.
My father stood up in the water, so he could get a better look, and replied. They are only about 5 ft long.
Most Floridians know that gators aren't very aggressive until they get to a certain length. Usually about 4 ft is when you have to start looking for aggression.
You never want to mess with alligator babies because mama is right around the corner and they will make a squeak and call her
And you never want to mess with any alligator during mating season
Yeah, I was going to say that gators are actually pretty even tempered. A lot of the time, so long as you don't mess with them, they don't care about you. They aren't like the very aggressive nile or saltwater crocodiles that will actually go after you, the vast majority of the time, gators just want to be left alone. So long as you don't do anything stupid and give them their space, you're generally good.
Honestly, that's the case with a lot of animals on this list. They just want to be left alone, so give them their space.
Now, if you want another good animal video that describes what to do if you DO get up close and personal with dangerous animals, check out Casual Geographic's 'How To Not Get Unsubscribed From Life By Animals.' He does talk fast but he also dumbs down a lot of animal facts and make them easier to learn.
Those are very old bear kill statistics. The grizzly and, more specifically, the Kodiak bear, will kill anything.
I love Florida and I love alligators. There are 10 states that have alligators not just Florida, and they don't bother you unless you bother them. I've been to Florida like 50 times and I've only seen alligators once or twice and they were in the distance mining their own business. 🤔
Even when they are close by, if they are well-fed the only thing besides poking them (don't do that!) that will set them off is getting near the nests - just like bears, they will attack to defend the youngsters.
lol…I have a gator living In my back yard. He does not concern me at all as I totally respect him and stay my distance.
Killing you quickly isn’t what makes bears scary, its the fact that many will simply start eating you while you are still alive. A 19 year old woman had time to call her mother and describe to her how much it hurt being eaten.
Andre - For a very different view of America you should check out Peter Santenello's, Wealthiest Tribe of Appalachia - Cherokee.
Lived in Florida...came across several alligators up close...their eyes...creepy to be looked at as food but remarkably beautiful creatures otherwise.
We currently have a cougar on our property in Montana. She just had young ones and killed a deer to feed them. She drug it about a quarter mile to her cubs and we filmed it all with game cameras. During the summer I see bears and rattlesnakes almost daily on my rural mail route
Shark attacks on surfers took a big jump back in the 1960s(?) when the short boards became popular due to the surfers now looking like seals when viewed from below.
Griz vs gorilla -- bear probably wins due to their huge claws and teeth.
Look up a size comparison between a gorilla and a grizzly bear
Though they're not deadly, Chihuahuas are probably the meanest dog breed I've ever encountered.
"I think bears are kind of cute. I could have a conversation with one." THATS why they are more dangerous than crocodiles!! Crocodile may (or may not?) Kill you faster, but people are more likely to walk up to a bear so get attacked more often.
While gators have great bite down power you could hold its snout shut with 1 hand.
The gator will probably kill you by drowning you
Betty White is a big animal activist, both wild & domestic pets
Dinosaurs are more related to chickens and turkeys😂
Not more related. Are. Birds are dinosaurs.
They Grizzly Man recording was from a camera with the lens cap still on. It was deemed to horrific to be released and was destroyed by loved ones.
